    Let's not get too carried away - Camargo is trash and has no place on a contending team's roster except MAYBE as a utility infielder. Completely agree that he's better than Bautista tho and Bats needs to be gone yesterday

    I get the hesitation to 'believe' in Camargo but the improvements the last 2+ years in the power department certainly seem more real by the day and I'll take a former SS at 3B defensively any day of the week.

    Wont go that far, but he should be starting over Joey, at worst given he's a good defender and has range.

    He has been better last couple of games though.

    Yep guys made huge strides in 2 years in the pop dept.

    Not sure what people are seeing at this point.

    Its certainly seems like fans are less likely to believe Camargo has improved for whatever reason.

    To me, the argument is Flaherty vs. Camargo with Bautista out of the discussion. Flaherty better glove, worse arm and maybe less upside but IMO deserves more consideration than many on this board seem willing to give him.

    Yeah - Late bloomers are never the darling of fans. Recent data holds more weight in analysis. What he did in the minors in 2015 and before is essentially irrelevant at this point.

    I think Camargos ceiling is head and shoulders above Flahrety. Nothing wrong with having him around to be a util guy but Camargo needs to be the guy moving forward.

    Not sure what Rojas was griping about as that pitch was clearly a strike.

    37+K to see a game against the Marlins. Sure, its a Saturday but I think the Braves are going to have more money than they projected.
