Good afternoon everyone, it’s time for another edition of the mailbag. Remember to send in your questions for our weekly call by e-mail to pinstripealleyblog [at] gmail [dot] com.
Ronald R. asks: I saw Ben Rortvedt’s name for the first time in the minor league update. Is it likely that he will be recalled at some point to provide a better backup for Trevino? Is Higashioka out of options and would that be enough to block Rortvedt?
Kyle Higashioka is indeed out of options, which to me closes the door on this discussion for this season.
