Good sign though. KT is proving that he is a starting-caliber 2B and EA is realizing that the big wood in his hand is not just for AM entertainment.

The rotation is proving to be a problem, and maybe there will be some big trades in the off season.

Tyson Ross?

yeah, I read that somewhere. If only there were a hashtag to capture that idea...

Adrianza showing glimpses. If he can even hit a lick, he's valuable with his glove.

Looks like he's ironed some things out.

There are only going to be a couple of storylines to follow during the Fall Exhibition season. One of them is EA; he is truly playing for a spot on the roster next year. If he can hit at all, he's got to be the other reserve IF with KT.

Also interesting will be to see what they do with De Aza, although I suspect there will be no room at the inn for him with Pence, Pagan, Byrd, Aoki, and Blanco on the roster. Really, there are only going to be two open spots on the whole roster -- SP4 and SP5
