I want to see how that power is going to perform with bats over a longer period.
But again, 65 grade speed on the 20 to 80 scale.
That's plus to plus plus above average hit can really field in center field and the Rays.
They will tell you anybody who asks.
They really value defense.
They really value speed.
So even if you aren't so great at the power position, they think if you take away runs, that's just as good to us as scoring them.
So this might be a really good organizational fit here between Slater to Braun and the Rays.

It felt like a mini trade deadline yesterday in some ways because
as somebody who had to update these lists and the D backs and Phillies did a minor deal off to the side too.

I get that.
I would love everybody to be done by mid January.
