When rosters expand in September, we can expect a lot of Postseason roster position battles to start. Main fight will be in the bullpenn. I feel its safe to say that only Heilman, Wagner, and Feliciano can really be sure that they are going to be on the postseason roster in the pen (Sosa will be on the roster and hopefully in the pen.)
Then it comes down to Schowenwies, Mota, and Sele who will have to fight for their current spots agaisnt whoever comes up during the expansion. We can expect consideration for Burgos, possibly Pelfry, who is good the first time thru the order. Lawerence, who will hopefully be out of the rotation by that time could also be fighting for a long relief spot.
Then there is also the battle of the bench. Milledge got the snub last year to Anderson Hernandez, who I think was a pinch runner in one game. It seems pretty obvious at this point that Milledge this year will make it in over Hernandez. The rest of the bench will be determined based on how people are healing. Conine was practically brought to the team for the postseason, so he has his part.
My opinion about the Bench is that it will remain the same it is now, unless when rosters expand, one of the people that come up just start a tear in September. The bullpen will be under a lot of watch, which is not a surprise.
