5/6 12:01 PM Rafael Devers (DH/1B-SF) Prospect News: Snelling A Promotion or Running To Logan. I managed to add newly promoted Giants 1B Bryce Eldridge in the open-waivers Perts league where I need a first baseman. I might have to hold him for a while despite the league having three bench spots and a super high churn rate because he’s not 1B eligible in Fantrax, and the Giants played him at designated hitter both nights. In his ten MLB games last year, he played six at DH and four at first base. I think Fantrax needs to update their eligibility requirements because DH is not a position. If a guy plays four games at 1B and zero games anywhere else in the field. He should be 1B eligible. Anywho, I suspect the Giants would like to see Eldridge at first base because he’s an enormous target over there at 6’7” and he’s a good athlete who’s not a ball-butcher with the glove. Rafael Devers actually played okay at the cold corner last year, but at six-foot even and 29 years old, he’s unlikely to provide much defensive value in the long run. On the other hand, moving him to first base at all was quite the ordeal, so maybe the front office would rather not tinker too much.
