Does anyone have the schedule for the Florida Complex League? I know it starts on May 4 but can't seem to find any information. Thanks!

Not that Johanfran should be factoring into this decision much, but with the catching strength in the system both at the MLB level and with the rapidly ascending Teel, Hickey feels like an obvious trade chip, right?
The bat is legit but if there’s a team that thinks he can be the strong side of a catching platoon, I think you have to explore the return. I think he’s at best the weak side of a platoon with Wong/sometimes DH, but Teel is going to force that issue sooner rather than later.
He feels like a guy Billy Beane would have loved.

It feels like it's going to take a stroke from God for hickey to be a passable MLB C other than in an emergency. I don't think they could pass him off as an option to play C to other teams but his bat is legit.

103 EV lineout for Grissom in the 2nd Think he can make it for tomorrow's game in Boston?

I think Hickey's trade value is pretty minimal with his upcoming Rule 5 eligibility this offseason. Computers kinda like his bat but it doesn't currently rate to be good enough to be valuable at DH and he hasn't shown that he's playable at C.

Chris and Ian on the last pod said it’s mostly the arm and that you can squeak him by against teams that aren’t going to run a lot. Going by the Georgios Papagiannis principle (niche NBA reference meaning it only takes one team looking the guy to do something mildly crazy) it’s not a huge jump from there to 60-80 game a year catcher for a second division club, imo.

Looks like Roman Anthony and Matthew Lugo collided and Lugo is now out of the game.

Fair enough the Sox have been running noodle arm McGuire out there. I'm sure hickey is worse but maybe not that much.

Feels like they would have given up on him as a C by now and gotten him more reps at other positions. (To be fair, I have no idea, but I’m curious if this is based off national reporters that have seen him a couple of times, or from the general consensus in this forum (who have probably seen him hundreds of times, in the aggregate.))
