Betimit's playing great and Aviles has been OK...so, there's no rush. Aviles can play 2B or 3B. If Getz falls out of any kind of 2B rotation (meaning Aviles takes over at 2B every day) and then Betimit starts to falter...then...then, you'll see Moose up with the big boys. OR...if Moose just goes on a ridiculous tear and forces his way on the club.
Right now, I'd temper my expectations for call-up any time "soon".
Hosmer and Duffy got the calls already but those situations were the perfect storms. Kila was awful in KC and Hosmer was dominating the minors...the Royals had no choice. Duffy was 3-1 and pitching great at AAA and Davies and Chen hit the DL...again, an easy choice. Moose has been driving the ball well but nothing too insane. And again, he's got a couple guys blocking his path.
