I guess that's the result of working hard. He was good enough to cost his team 11.9 runs in the field last season, and 21 runs the previous season. I guess that’s the result of working hard.

I on't ever recall seeing a ball on the ground get past him...it's the balls in the air that can be scary. But, you will never see a player work harder to improve, and he really has. He was actually good last season. His main problem is that he is slow. His best position is 1b, but he came up as a catcher. He is a gamer and is missed in Seattle.

You guys actually managed to downgrade your left field defense! That's almost as improbably as Team USA not having anyone who can play first base on their 43 man roster. Ha!
