Balta1701 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Aug 25, 2013 -> 03:41 PM) Let's keep Jordan around. Any reports on Garcia? I can't tell if Jordan will put together enough consistency to be a quality backup/rotation player or not. The talent is there but the strikeouts are going to be in the way.

The talent is there but the strikeouts are going to be in the way. That's the reason I think a position as a backup is his best shot. It would be nice to see him develop beyond that but I think he is going to have competition from our minor league OF'ers soon. He needs to step it up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs to step it up He's a good enough defender to be a solid backup, has power, and hits from the left hand side, so he really does fit as a backup OF on a lot of roster...but he has to hit better than .220. Get that up to .240-.250 and he's a solid backup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elrockinMT Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Danks closing in on a hundred pitches and not through 5 yet. The homer he gave up is how many for the year? Lot's if that's a number Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
