I think the issue/question is whether Leyland is ready to pull the plug on Sean Casey. From a conversation with Jason Beck on 1270 the other day it doesn't sound like that is in their plans, at least that they are saying publicly, for now. If not, I would rather see Shelton getting regular at-bats in Toledo than picking up Marcus's already low number of AB's. Yes, .403.

I'd take that. Who wouldn't? Even if it's only .350 in the majors. I'd rather see the redheaded kid back. Shelton has an OBP of around .400 right? I’d take that. Who wouldn’t?
