There's that, although a lot can happen in between Brandon Nimmo saying a lot can happen and something happening. The current roster of batsmen seems pretty set. There's an apparent limit of 13 pitchers (although that's been waived the last two years). But based on that implied number of 13 batters, that leaves two catchers: McCann Nido ... six infielders ... Alonso Canó Davis Escobar Guillorme Lindor ... and five outfielders ... Cahna Marte McNeil Nimmo Smitty Now, you can switch McNeil with Davis (and probably should) as to which unit you imagine him a part of, but the thing is that most of those guys are locks. If you bring in Conforto or somebody else without moving somebody out, the odd man out is most likely Guillorme, and that would leave Escobar as the only shortstop backup. It certainly could be done (as the DH means, among other things, it's easier to go only two-deep at a position) but it's a tight squeeze.
