Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Why are we asking about this hypothetical scenario?

P.S. What would happen if the grass at Progressive Field turned into lava during the middle of the game?


Actually asked this question in the game thread and again you become a dismissive jerk

It was and is a fair question ... I am very aware of the rules regarding loss of DH

Perhaps asking a question as a fan is out of the question here

All I was seeking was a straight answer from those who act like experts at other times it is now obvious you are not sure either so you hide that lack of knowledge by poking fun at another

In the event that we lost two infielders in the same game, I'll say Kipnis and Lindor for this example, we'd probably set up our emergency MLB infield like this:

3B - Carlos Santana
SS - Mike Freeman
2B - Jose Ramirez
1B - Jake Bauers

If we lost one of our MLB infielders for an extended period, the most likely candidates to come up and replace them on our 40-man roster are:
- Andrew Velazquez
- Yu Chang
- Eric Stamets
 
What a worthless cocktease

If I never have to see Eric Stamets play another game for the Indians, it will be too soon.

Thanks really did not think I would cause an issue with the question

I honestly have no idea if you're asking about a hypothetical game situation or you're actually concerned that we don't have enough emergency infielders on the roster.

@Stark gave the right response. It's probably Chang who gets first dibs if we need an everyday bat. Maybe stamets if we start freeman, or if it's a shorter term injury.

If I am asking the question seemingly I have a concern ,,,

As I said several of you paint yourselves as the experts .. thought you may have an answer ,,, my guess was Tito has a,plan

Thought one of you may know
