He has maintained a high BABIP in the minors and I think he can do that consistently because he makes hard contact. So if he can just get the K rate down to something like 25% in the majors, he should be able to stick. But if it stays at 30% or above, he's never going to make it.
    Reasonable assessment. I hope he figures it out. Odds are against him, but he's young, and might be one of the exceptions. Power is in such short supply that it sure would be nice.

    He is young, most believe the power will come once he finds his sweet spot on pitch selection. It could be one of those 24 year olds before we know what we have.

    Derian Cruz is 3-5 with a double and three-run homer today. Pache is 2-4 with a triple.

    No prospects threw today. Still waiting on Ian Anderson and Bryse Wilson to debut.
