Beckham and McCutchen

[warner892001]

Beckham was just promoted to AAA and hes been playing at 3B. Are they not confident with Josh Fields production? Is he going to be called up sometime in the month of June?

Andrew McCutchen has been ripping it up in AAA. Will he be coming up in June?

McCutchen doesn't have a spot on the major league roster. Morgan is doing good and Moss has been raking as of late. I think there would need to be an injury or trade if he gets the call before July.

And as for Beckham I'd say no to that as well. Ozzie didn't want to have him come up this season so I don't think he will be up in June. But I do think he will be playing 3rd by August 1st.

so Beckham and McCutchen could be full-timers next year?
Do you see McCutchen coming up at all- or since theres no spot then he doesnt come up

I think McCutchen will start opening day. Beckham may start in the minors depending on how he performs next spring but I think he will play full time next year too. I think McCutchen will be up this season since I don't see how Moss can keep up the pace he has been on recently, and you can't predict injuries or what the Pirates front office will do at the deadline.
