I really hope Jackie Bradley JR steps it up for you guys or somewhere else. He is killing it in AAA and has gold glove potential in center. He just isn't hitting enough. Loved watching that kid play in the College World Series a few years ago. Works his ass off.

I don't think he's going to be able to hit enough to justify a roster spot in the majors.

It's looking like you are probably right.

One thing that drives me crazy with Bradley is how has proven repeatedly that he cannot lay a bunt down. If you are a guy that struggles to hit .200, you should be working on bunting all the time.

Wish they hadn't brought him up to the majors this year; might be harder to trade him.

Exactly. I have not watched him play enough at the pro level but I am shocked a guy like that does not handle the bat better.

Joe Buck's impression of Steven Wright (the funny one) should be a criminal offense.

My wife points out that any viewer who doesn't know who Steven Wright is will neeeeever look into him now.
