You know what the real reason why Valdez is not going to see any playing time soon and in AAA?

 

Money

 

The Fish management doesn't want to pay the amount of money they pay Sea bass to sit on the bench not until they get rid of his ass for something in return.I wouldn't be surprise to see Sea Bass as a trade bait if the Fish are in the playoffs.

It is really a tough call regarding Gonzo.

 

There were a couple of plays tonight that were just beautiful. His range is superb. He has quick hands and a strong arm. He makes tough plays look easy that other SSs in the league never get to.

 

The best case would be to see him develop better plate discipline and hit around .240 or .250. If can do that, then there will not be a move to replace him.

 

If he continues to hit well below .200, then that could give Valdez a chance. I have said before that Agon is there for his defense and anything he does offensively is plus but it kills me having to watch him give oppenent an automatic out.What makes it more frustrating is the fact we have someone who defensively has potential to be great and offensively should be better than AGon(Valdez).We also can't forget about easly who will be drop off defensively but certianly far greater offensive player from what he has show so far.

CONINE

REDMOND

IF they don't start...I will be very disappointed in Jack.

 

Tonight, Jack sent a lineup out that didn't look to win. Castro and Nu?ez don't defend as well as Redmond and Conine respectively and didn't hit when needed.

:thumbup

 

When it comes to catcher for my fantasy team I want Castro, but Redmond handles our pitchers so well and is a consistent hitter that I want him starting most of the time.

 

Conine is our best defensive outfielder. Cabrera has looked lost out in right since we put him there last year, Pierre does not read balls and relies solely on speed. Jeff reads balls as well as anyone in the game, and still runs the count and moves runners over when he is in a slump. Unlike first-pitch try to hack it Nunez.
