For awhile I would like to see: Palka platooned with Cordell Rondon start at second Covey used in long relief only Jones used for 6th or 7th before any base runners are on Colome & Herrera used to cover 8th & 9th when important game is on the line

Not one of his better games. Although I think he's an all around solid player everyone knows he would be better suited for infield backup. Would really like Rondon to get a chance. He looked pretty clutch in Spring.

Love the move. He's looked great this Spring. When Madrigal comes up our infield will make us all proud. Guys like him just make things happen.

With Jon Jay on the 10 DL--we get a good look at Palka, Garcia and Engle and how Rick uses these guys. Palka's ability to handle right field is a big question mark for me. I like Jay as a role player and predict we're glad to have him before it's over. Although I love what Palka does for the offense he has to catch the ball. He's been passable in the games I've watched but will wait to see him when the bright lights go on. He has slimmed down quite a bit so am hopeful.

Our left side of the infield looks pretty good to me. Look for both guys to make major strides.

Sounds right on the money!

86 plus Much improved bullpen & and line-up. If starters over perform we compete for the division. Can't wait until more of you jump on the bandwagon.
