July 17, 201312 yr QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jul 17, 2013 -> 12:20 PM) POTW or POTY? Ha, I saw that too. I wondered why there would be a player of the year award with over a month left in the season. It's been fixed.

July 17, 201312 yr Can we expect anything from this kid in the long run? What was his scouting report?
July 18, 201312 yr QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jul 17, 2013 -> 05:31 PM) Can we expect anything from this kid in the long run? What was his scouting report? It's impossible to know. He's 19, weighs, 160, and hits line drives. That's about all there is to know. It's good to see him hitting well early on as that's a sign of a player who, at the very least, has a chance to advance.
