I'm fine with giving Flores a bit more time if it will help keep him healthy for the longer term, and I'm fine taking it slow on Morse so we'll have his bat for a good, long time. (Hi, Davey! :-))<br /><br />And I'm with NatsLady on having those who made the ultimate sacrifice in my thoughts today.natsfan1ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14540238101124316529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-22338344361891329012012-05-28T15:43:57.443-04:002012-05-28T15:43:57.443-04:00Although the game isn't over in the bottom of ...Although the game isn't over in the bottom of he 8th yet, I have to keep reminding myself that every team loses a lot of games, even the ones you really, really want to win.<br /><br />+1/2St.Positively Half St.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07048223068323120438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-36618813319616425072012-05-28T14:07:15.641-04:002012-05-28T14:07:15.641-04:00REPOST from previous thread.
Tyler Moore is VERY ...REPOST from previous thread.<br /><br />Tyler Moore is VERY MUCH a different case and situation compared to Corey Brown.<br /><br />Moore is a player without a position. Of course the injury to Tracy just might change that. His best position is first base. With LaRoche and Tracy hitting Moore languishes on the bench. <br /><br />The experiment to put Moore in left field is still a work in progress. He gets at most 2 AB's before Davey double switches him for a defensive replacement. Something he has not done with Lombardozzi in left.<br /><br />Message? Moore is not even close to ready to play the outfield yet.<br /><br />Moore needs to return to AAA ... that is of course unless there's another injury to add the countless others and it occurs at first base. Its not like LaRoche is immune given last season's fiasco.<br /><br />Now Brown? He can start and play CF or any other position in the outfield. Not defensive replacement needed. Five tool with a plus arm and plus ISO given his season in the minors in which just about 1/2 of his hits were for extra bases. Something Mark, of course, failed to mention. That and he has four triples, two coming in the last two games he played along with 2 of those five home runs.<br /><br />In other words: Brown looks like everyone expected Harper to look down in AAA. He was destroying the IL from his lead-off spot. In fact after he was shut down they promptly went on a losing streak after winning more than losing of late.<br /><br />Syracuse misses Brown's bat and Tyler Moore's for that matter. Moore really should be returned to the AAA affiliate when he can play every day and learn to play left field.perichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02669200119049715758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3442809928829881676.post-89196704290674475742012-05-28T13:34:27.924-04:002012-05-28T13:34:27.924-04:00Phew!
