f*** Yes.

 

BUT.... If he's taking Betemit's spot on the team i.e. bench guy, than f*** NO. He needs to be STARTING EVERY DAY, not wasting away on the bench while Josh Fields swings through 89 mph fastballs

Ozzie said he's gonna drink himself to sleep, but wake up tomorrow and figure out a way to give Beckham atbats.

So if he struggles his first week, how long until we hear about Joe Borchard and other failed prospects? This could be interesting.

 

About the second he goes 1-10. This place is gonna be hilarious if he bombs.

If he starts his MLB career anything close to how he started all of his minor league stops, we'll be just fine.

I'd think there'd be more blaming of Kenny for rushing him if that happens.

Although we have a lot of people on here who assess batters' swings, etc. If he is showing

some big perceived flaws in his stance, swing, approach, yes the anger will be out in full force.

And the calling for Walker's head again.

 

Actually the law of averages favor Beckham. How many of our new callups/guys acquired via trade do anything great right out of the gate?
