See I never understood why people thought he was good. If you think his 08 season was 'outstanding' then I think that's where the difference begins. He showed power and didn't strike out a lot, but he didn't walk much and was slightly on the older end of the prospect age scale.

But he looked to be headed in the right direction. A legitimate 5-tool talent. I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Still disappointing.
April 2, 201115 yr Sorry guys ...Chase told me about this on Tuesday, but I was traveling all that day and haven't had time to get on ...I'll try not to drop the ball again!! Lol

Lol Ha you've already been way ahead of everyone on a few things so you could do nothing the rest of the year and we'd still love you. Is Chase in extended again this year?

Is Chase in extended again this year? HAHA perfect!! That's awesome! He is. He usually averages right around 1.8 seconds on his throws from home to second and they were clocking him at 2.1, so he had x-rays and an MRI done and there is a tear in his flexor ..It has been hurting him for a while, but he played through it because he didn't want to have training room time on his record! LOL ..Johnny O made him go, though, so he had no choice. Rehab's going alright, but he's frustrated because he wants to be playing ball!!
April 3, 201115 yr On the upside at least it's an injury holding him back. It wouldn't be a good sign if he was in extended two years in a row and was healthy.
