The biggest improvement manager Brandon
Hyde has noticed from Coby Mayo is his defense. The infielder, who mainly plays third base, has taken leaps forward on that front.
Hyde had already seen the potential Mayo has with a bat in his hands.
"He's come a long way defensively," Hyde said. "The power in batting practice is ridiculously impressive. ... But his defense has stood out. He's made big strides defensively."
So far, Mayo has shown off both sides of his game in his first few opportunities. He doubled in his first at-bat of the spring and added two singles and a walk two days later. On Tuesday, Mayo powered a ball foul down the left-field line and finished the long at-bat with another walk before driving an RBI double later in the game.--Baltimore Sun
