His name is John Gil. He is him.

109.7 exit velocity

John Gill is coming boys. Him being a difference maker sometime later this year or probably next would be huge for the franchise.

Bout time they produce a quality rookie

Yeah we've been slacking on the offensive side at producing guys

I think you missed the joke.

So that homer is the first time I've actually seen Gil. I've heard the comparisons to Furcal but I'm guessing that's just because of his speed? Gil looks like he's pretty jacked and nothing like Furcal. 109 EV...

significantly

I'll just say..this kid(Tornes)is something else. His exit velos and maturity are a welcome addition to the farm. Gil showing power elevates him significantly from a prospect perspective. He holds that this year, sky is the limit.

They’ve been saying he’s a Furcal/Betemit hybrid from a prospect standpoint

This is promising.

I dare say there’s some hope being displayed around here….. I’m not sure how to process this.

 

[Slippyjms]

I'll be surprised if he does. Perez is a much better option, and Richie and baumann will be knocking hard this season

Dodd is a RP not a SP but he likely won’t break with the team because we already have 3 lefties and he has an option. If something happens to Lee or Bummer he should be getting the call though

 

[CyYoung31]

Has Bummer pitched yet? How has he looked?
