The bullpen is looking more and more solidified with Tyler Clippard and John Axford likely to secure spots. The rotation was finalized after signing Jaime Garcia and the lineup looks good to go. With Troy Tulowitzki likely starting on the 60 day-DL, Danny Espinosa, who’s an upgrade over Gift Ngoepe appears likely the 25th man on the roster.
Espinosa is a natural shortstop who can also play some second base and bring an above average glove on the defensive side of the ball. Given that Tulowitzki will be out for a lengthy period of time, Aledmys Diaz will play short with Yangervis Solarte being the floater around the diamond giving guys time off.
