It is crazy, Moore brought him in to be his 1B, didn't he?
he’s HIS guy, now that he’s showing that he might be able to be that guy, how can you not let him try it??
It its a roster problem, shouldn’t he have thought about that long ago. I mean, he signed Gload in the offseason, had he already given up on Shealy?

Ryan Shealy
He’s younger
He has the semblance of power.
He fields his position pretty well.
Moore gave up two TWO pitchers (the commodity of baseball) to get him.
Yea, I don’t get it either. Any reasonable GM should be able to see Ross Gload is a stop gap guy who belongs on the bench, not a guy who plays every day.
