The Pomp And Joe Show
The Bechtold Breakdown - McCutchen meets with Nutting, Pitt lowers capacity

I know that.

The Bechtold Breakdown - McCutchen meets with Nutting, Pitt lowers capacity

He's still a left-handed hitter, which is what I said.

And Brian Reynolds, who's a switch hitter.

The Bechtold Breakdown - McCutchen meets with Nutting, Pitt lowers capacity

So, I think that McCutcheon is valuable in spots.

The Pomp And Joe Show
The Bechtold Breakdown - McCutchen meets with Nutting, Pitt lowers capacity

You're not going to start him every day.

The Pomp And Joe Show
The Bechtold Breakdown - McCutchen meets with Nutting, Pitt lowers capacity

He should not be your everyday DH.

The Pomp And Joe Show
The Bechtold Breakdown - McCutchen meets with Nutting, Pitt lowers capacity

I'm not saying that.

But against lefties in late-game situations, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th inning...

The Pomp And Joe Show

I think he could still be used as a pinch hitter, and I still think that that last spot on the bench, maybe we're overvaluing how much that guy is truly going to be used in a DH lineup because I think we've seen over the past years that that last guy is not utilized as much as people might think.

So you also pointed something to my attention, Joe, about what Keith Law had to say about Connor Griffin.

The Pomp And Joe Show

So, of course, Keith Law made Connor Griffin the number one prospect on his list for the Athletic, saying he's the most exciting prospect we've had in the minors since Mike Trout.

The Bechtold Breakdown - McCutchen meets with Nutting, Pitt lowers capacity

I think he's going to end up as one of the best players in baseball once he's established.

But Joe, you can fill us in a little bit more.

Keith Lodge says something that this could be an Otani on the Angels-like situation.

The Pomp And Joe Show
The Bechtold Breakdown - McCutchen meets with Nutting, Pitt lowers capacity

Yeah, I don't think they will unless they sign him to a long-term extension.

And Mackey has said that they haven't had any conversations, but it seems like there's some mutual interest on both sides.

The Pomp And Joe Show
The Bechtold Breakdown - McCutchen meets with Nutting, Pitt lowers capacity

Obviously, those conversations need to happen.

The Pomp And Joe Show
The Bechtold Breakdown - McCutchen meets with Nutting, Pitt lowers capacity

So I'm intrigued by that.

The Pomp And Joe Show
The Bechtold Breakdown - McCutchen meets with Nutting, Pitt lowers capacity

But in the back of my mind, and I know, Joe, you say, who cares about seven years from now?

The Pomp And Joe Show

I do.
