Now, is he going to look like Teoscar in left field and make a mess of it?

Sure, whatever.

But if he hits a ball 480 feet, I do not care about that.

We can live with that.

So you need some of these guys who are going to keep the team solid.

And I think Davis Schneider is that.

He's on this team for a reason.

I want to see him in there as much as possible.

But Jesus Sanchez, I think the upside there is ridiculous.

I think his upside, especially facing right-handed pitching, is what you need in this lineup with Varshow down, with Barger not doing much, and without Vladdy, who was up there at number one, Len with Vladdy.

Because like I said, it's the lazy, easy answer, but Vladdy hasn't been Vladdy yet.

It still applies, man.

Exactly.

If Vladdy is, he's not going to be himself like he was in the postseason last year.

He's not going to put up a 1289 OPS.

That's ridiculous.

But right now, he is just being a good version of himself.

And I see a guy who is trying really, really hard when, for Vladdy, the solution is probably showing up at 7.06 p.m.

and just jumping on the field.

You know, after the games in Chicago, he was out in the cages hitting next to us.
