Wisler has had a good spring. Not likely it lasts over the season, but he has been pretty good this spring

2 errors today so far. Still questioning why he is here, why he was traded for.
Lol here we goooooo
That's after Folty becomes Verlander though right? All are realistic outcomes. I mean, why wait on Albies for three years. He will be Altuve now.
Don't pretend that you aren't intrigued just how good he can be l.
If you’re talking about the Newk/Pham AB I agree. Newk was all over the place against Wong after giving up a hit to the pitcher, then seemed to get squeezed a bit against Pham.

He has been awful. I really have no problem with taking a chance on him though. Don’t want us keeping Riley in AA though bc of shrimp in AAA.

Yeah, Newcomb.
Everyone that follows baseball is intrigued.
However, only you could claim a guy who’s being compared to Trout and Aaron might be under hyped lol.

There is no question he is very intriguing......he did this all of last season across 3 levels in the minors, then goes to the AFL and wins MVP. Then comes to camp, is hitting .430+ , hitting for power and stealing bases....
This kid is going to be special. I understand the minors are not major league talent, but at least in spring, he is facing some legit major league pitchers
Those comparisons were from a posibrave and a former brave. Nobody is saying that. The question is...should more people be.

Has Ryan Schimpf ever seen the movie Contact? Maybe he should wear contact lenses. Maybe he needs to give his bat some Contac Cold and Flu medicine seeing that it is really suffering some some type of ailment.
I'll stop now.

Acuna may have been in the majors last season if not for getting hurt in 2016. Now that seems like a blessing in disguise.
