Bud Selig: "I'm the worst commissioner ever"

Three particular items of interest:
- Garcia on the IL
- Sanmartin mentioned as a starter
- serious speed in that outfield
Losing Greene is a pretty big blow here, the rest of the pitchers aren't that interesting. Not even sure where a rotation forms, guessing something like Naughton, Lillie, Sanmartin, Jordan, and Olson. Maybe Michael Byrne could even get stretched out.
India and Garcia are probably the big 2. The outfielders are toolsy and intrigue me but Fairchild's the only one I'm really invested in.

Garcia got called up to Louisville??? Talk about being rushed--he's not near ready.Originally Posted by mace

Several pitchers here will get chances, hopefully somebody emerges.
Honestly not trying to be negative here, but when is the last time we’ve had someone emerge out of relative nowhere? Santiallan is the only guy we have that lived up to expectations last year.
The pitching staffs at all four levels are rough.

Michael Byrne is intriguing. He's crafty. I'm interested to see how he does this yr

I think this is going to be a pretty good team. Hopefully Clementina strong at C. They seem to have a very strong outfield with Fairchild, Gordon, Sugillo, and Cerola and Ventura. Some strong guys in the infield, although it will be interesting to see how they mix and match them. India, Garcia, Santana, Lopez.
Starters: Jordan, Lillie, Packy, Sanmartin, Bautista. And a bunch of strong relievers......

Jose Garcia turned up tonight in the Daytona lineup after missing the first three weeks. Played SS and went 2-3 with a double and a walk.

Garcia should turn that lineup into one that's at least interesting.
Those OF, though. Ick
That's two of four Cincinnati teams that are at least somewhat intriguing.
Fairchild, Gordon, Sugilio and Cedrola all could be interesting if any of them could figure out how to hit. Probably won't happen, but if even one of them could catch fire it would be fun to watch.
