And from what I have read, a bad influence in the clubhouse and can affect the whole team chemistry in the wrong way.

Its on the field that bothers me. Did you watch the World series where he played Escobar's fly out into an inside the park HR. Lazy OFer in the World series?? Really. I have zero interest in this guy. Buck would kill him.

"@Buster_ESPN: With OF market frozen and O's talks with Chris Davis at a standstill, BAL has engaged with high-end FA OFers, including Yoenis Cespedes."

Hmmm this seems counter to what I've been reading lately in regards to us only spending on Chris. Oh well I like this if true. Do something DD

Sometimes when waiting in a slow elevator I will converse with those around me.

Maybe, just maybe, something from an unnamed source from within MLB shouldn't be treated as gospel.

Thanks for posting. Hoping this is true (no pick) but afraid it is what others are speculating, just smoke.

One can always hope, I think this team could use him and I like the fact he doesn't cost a pick.

Heck, he can even golf during the MLB Division Series if he wants:)

And in 2012 Adam Jones lazily played a Jeter fly out into a triple in the ALDS. That stuff happens.

    • He threw that fastball right down the shoot on a 1-2 count. That was not a case of Trout being Trout. It was a case of horrible location. I have to believe that it was not his intention to throw it there after he watched us beat Trout several times the night before with hard stuff up in the zone (Trout's only weakness). Maybe the extra day messed up something with Rodriguez's ability to execute? Maybe he just had a bad night? But this was not the case of the Angels being good. It was Grayson who was really bad.
    • But, but they lost. They absorbed a loss. 
    • That’s probably true and Elias said he also didn’t want to call him up if he wasn’t ready to be an everyday player.   So ………. something to keep an eye on.
    • Yea he has looked bad but while it’s fair to point that out, it’s also fair to point that some of this could be attributed to rust, an injury, not having a real ST, not playing in the field as much (I assume since he’s not catching?), etc…I think his timing is likely off and he’s working himself back into things. He has played 15 games. He has a multi hit game in 1/3 of his game so far. You point out all the Ks…what’s funny is all the Ks came in 5 games and he hasn’t struck out the last 4. To me the only thing that bothers me as of right now is the zero walks but it’s not something that would concern me long term.
    • This indicates that his timing is off. And as many have already mentioned, he is pulling off the ball. This probably due to his lower confidence (because he has been scuffling) and not trusting himself enough to stay back and go with the pitch. This will get corrected in due time.
    • That's fine we each are entitled to our opinions.  I think we both want the same thing, which is for Holliday to get it going. As to how he get's there, we will have to see how it plays out.
    • Maybe not so good that his front hip is almost in the first base dugout and he has to get fully extended just to reach a ball on the outside corner.
