The kid has 2 doubles and 3 more RBI's in 3 AB's tonight off Jimenez who has that ERA of 1 something and is now hitting .382 with an ungodly OPS of 1.109 but only for 34 AB's.

Okay I admit it......I have a full blown man crush on this kid. He looks good striking out with how fast he clears his hips with his approach at the plate. Why was it so hard for this kid to get noticed. He may turn into the position player version of Billy Rohr or David Clyde but he is certainly more by the day than expected and it is fun to watch.
