Parlor game: which one of these players (other than Bello, who would otherwise be a lock) will get the most plate appearances (for hitters) or batters faced (for pitchers) in 2023? My guess would be Valdez. One of the pitchers might edge him out but I've got no line of sight on which one it might be so I'm going with the backup 2B who is already on the 40-man.

I think Mata can be a significant bullpen arm down the stretch. I put the O/U on his innings at 32.5

I’m going to take Chris Murphy. I think the spot starts will add up and Mata won’t be able to catch up on bullpen outings. Rafaela, Valdez, and a probable MIF addition will cannibalize too many ABs from each other. |

It has to be Valdez. The unsettled MIF situation plays in his favor. And I have to think that the Red Sox will want to get a look at his bat to see what they have in him. Being a LHH gets him in the lineup more, too.
For the P's, I'd go with Walter. I think he's most likely to get some starts and stick in the rotation if injuries hit the rotation.

I'm just hoping for a revival of the player videos. Those were classic.
