Literally every player in baseball can have a 3 week stretch where they look like a HOF player, or look like they should be released. 3 weeks gives you almost zero information in baseball.
He had a great second half last year, he had an excellent 2017 in AA, and he had a great spring training... He's knocked a hell of a lot harder than any of the other OFs we have (other than Grichuk)
Alford is the only guy I'd have up here that isn't up here. Vlad needs some "seasoning" (read: we need to get that extra year of control) and Bo, Biggio etc aren't knocking hard enough that I'd force them onto this team.
Wow, that was a LOT of complaints for a very obvious strike call...
Man, there are like... 3 batters on this team that I'd probably ditch, the rest are guys I'd wait on...
He's 100% opened some eyes. If he isn't in the MLB rotation, it will be so that he can be in the AAA rotation to be called back up. But honestly, I don't know how you'd demote him even for Buchholz at this point.
