SnakePit Round Table: Mad, and bummed

Spencer: I’ve long been a proponent of letting the youth play, no matter what. There’s enough depth/options to rifle through rotation arms as players hit walls too big to climb on their own. I say if he’s willing to move the bullpen, let him try to be effective as a mop-up/long reliever. If not, oh well. Cut him and give the spot to Tommy Henry. When Davies is back, one of the rookies will likely be hurt or struggling. And there are other AAA options as well if something breaks before Davies’ return. I love watching competitive Diamondbacks Baseball, but I’m willing to sacrifice a contending 2023 season if it means getting rookie mistakes/development out of the way.
