Your link pulls up Chris Nelson's stat page.

[Sports Guy]

He will look good in the Pirates organization.

[Stotle]

He will look good in the Pirates organization.

Would be interesting. They could slide him to 2B and try him out there or they could go ahead and stick Alvarez at 1B.

My guess would be that Alvarez would slide to 1B.

[Stotle]

I'd agree. That would make most sense. Here's one to keep in the back of your mind...I wouldn't be surprised to see Rendon at SS next year for Rice. Not saying he sticks there long term, but so long as Hague signs I think he could get the nod (or at least a not insignificant amount of time there).

Interesting. If Rendon demonstrates SS ability, what does that do to his draft profile?:scratchchinhmm:

[Greg Pappas]

Sorry about the link mix-up. Fixed.

I hate to say it, but I truly hope we suck the rest of the season so we can draft this guy.

[Moose Milligan]

He started the second round of batting practice, I said to our coaches, 'You want to see Hank Aaron's wrists? There they are.'

There's just no way we'd be fortunate enough to draft a guy like this.

[Frobby]

OK, I'm convinced. Let's finish last and get this guy.

[clapdiddy]

Right. We'll wind up sweeping Detroit at the end of the year in three meaningless games and some other team will wind up with him.

[LookinUp]

He will look good in the Pirates organization.

I'm not positive they'd take him with some pretty elite pitching prospects also available and Alvarez in tow. Could be wrong though.

[Hooded Viper]

He will look good in the Pirates organization.

Why do you say this? Do you think they will have a worse record than us?

[Big Mac]

Please finish with the worst record and pick this guy.

This is even more incentive to trade all of Tejada, Millwood, Guthrie, Wigginton and Scott at the deadline, IMO.
