Gameday Thread, #92: 7/10 vs. Nationals OVERFLOW

Who was it said Reynolds couldn't learn anything at Tucson? How about learning to field the frickin' baseball? Dodged a bullet in the ninth. Let's see if we can rescue this one... Fresh start...

He dropped the ball on one play

in the last inning. Didn’t see the other ones.

Only saw the second and third

But he basically clanked them. First should have been a double-play, too. Entirely justified.

I think he could be a lot better than he’s been playing.

by Scrbl on Jul 10, 2008 9:51 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

He’s defense seems really solid and, with some better plate discipline, he could be a decent hitter too. It would be hard to give up on any of the young players. UNtil the team gets out of its collective funk, we’re not gonna know what they can really do.
