I know it was psychological, but still, I had my doubts right then. His baserunning/fundamental mistakes...overestimating his speed and range, lack of arm strength, lack of power/pull ability as a hitter, all those signs were evident pretty quickly.

It's almost like there should be a way for players to play competitive games in some league other than the big leagues so that they can improve their baseball skills. I wonder if anyone has thought about that. </sarc>
