If he could raise up his OBP more — how about some slap hits to the left side, he’d beat out alot of throws? — I don’t think his making the team would be a question. With his speed and “true cenerfielder’ defensive play, he has alot to offer in areas where the A’s are thin, if he can just get on base more to be a real leadoff option.

So last year, Eveland was a mess mechanically AND he couldn’t see??

The fact that he was still a marginal MLB starter with both of those problems last year really makes me wonder how good this guy may be this season – combining the motion changes he picked up in Sacramento late last year along with, oh I don’t know…being able to actually SEE the catcher’s mitt!!

Scary. How do things like this get missed at this level? But either way, I’m glad to see it all start coming together for this guy. He has the tools and seems to have the genuine desire. You always pull for those guys.
