There is plenty of playing time to be had between Coghlan, Schwarber and Soler. But if Javy gets called up there's really nowhere to put him. It's a good problem to have, but I don't know how they figure it out. Starlin's playing better since the trade deadline and Addison Russell has been an entirely different hitter since the All Star Break while maintaining that special defense he brings.

I think we won't see Javy until September. He's an everyday player without an everyday job opening right now. Slow and steady with him is fine. But like Maddon said, he is more than the power potential. He's a great defender, a great baserunner and has a high baseball IQ.
