How will you be able to tell?

Caught the end of Walker discussion on 101 when running to the store. Apparently Brant Brown and not sure if any other coaching staff made some public comments about his preparation or dedication or something along those lines. Anyone have any insight?

I would like to see Herrera get some more time in the outfield. It would be nice to see if he can make it as at least a part time LFer.

Not heard any negatives about his work ethic.

again...I don't understand how this team's lineup can have a losing record.

Their starting pitching and relief pitching must be quite awful this year???

Nor I. It wasn't exactly about his work ethic but rather sounded as though he's being stubborn about what "he" wants to work on, rather than what the coaches are saying he should be working on.

Ah. That ive not heard. At this point if he’s been listening, stop. If he hasn’t. Start.

“At some point in time, he’s going to have to devote kind of more focus on preparation.”

“This is not only looking at film on the starter, but also being able to come in and the first day of a series, like just take a look at all the bullpen guys…

Just so we’re not like, you know, getting snuck up on when a guy comes in.”

That's all I saw on Twitter.

3 LH hitters in a row. Herrera hitting 2nd in a lineup that almost guarantees he hits with nobody on.

Next level thinking!!!

Yes, I listened to interview with Brant Brown.

He was diplomatic but said Walker does not take preparation as serious as he should before games. He was very candid in interview, but careful how he phrased it

It won't be as windy in the park.
