2012 Topps Chrome Refractor 69/75 |
But that's why you can't trust small sample sizes.
When the Pirates traded for Gaby Sanchez in 2012, it was clear that they didn't view Hague as a consistent major leaguer. He's decent with the glove at first, but isn't known for his defense. In addition, he hasn't shown enough versatility to make the team as a utility corner infielder/outfielder so he's basically just a right handed bat off the bench. The Pirates wouldn't consider carrying someone like this on their roster. Hopefully Matt can see some playing time when the Pirates play interleague games in AL parks because his bat would make for a good DH for a few days.
I purchased the above 2012 Topps Chrome Sepia Refractor AUTO for $6 delivered. The card looked nice enough to add to my collection for that price.
Is he still on the 40 man? Hard to imagine a scenario where he sees PNC again.
ReplyDeleteNo he's not. I think if he has a really hot streak, Gaby gets injured and/or play against a lot of AL parks or LHP he gets a call up again. Otherwise, I see him being just AAA depth for the rest of his career.
