I would emphasize what is best for development over service time. The service time clock almost never plays out as predicted (the majority, maybe even vast majority of prospects are just not that valuable at the end of the service time clock and the prospects who develop into good players who stick typically stick pretty quickly). 

Sure, to some degree.  However if we can get an extra year of team control out of RM, or any of our top prospects, I’d hope the front office recognizes the importance of that.

Mountcastle looks like he's in a bit of a slump, looked lost at the plate tonight. Just in between on everything.

His August numbers are poor.

I hadn't looked but not surprised, he looks like someone in the middle of a funk.

Does it look like he is pressing, or just unsure of himself?

I also wonder if he was told at the end of July that he wouldn't be going to Baltimore this year and fell into things a bit because of it?

I don't know his thoughts, just looks like a slump to me, not seeing the ball well.
