Let's hope he responds well. He must be flummoxed.

first thing I see...he's missing in the zone. Something is giving him problems there. He's not chasing bad, so his knowledge of the zone is good.

Reminds me again of Malcolm Nunez, who tore up the rookie league and then faded into nothing land

catcher playing 1b?
I think I might have heard of that before.

new fad,

Crav -- why is the cards system seem so flush with catchers? just an organic thing? taking the best player available? throwing a very wide net to find someone to try and fill yadi's shoes?

we have to have a good scout in Panama finding Herrera and Bernal...Maikel Hernandez, Rainiel Rodriguez, Sammy Hernandez are really good....and then, we've done pretty well drafting Pages and Crooks....we let them take their time developing, that helps, they're not rushed.
