Galvis and Herrera

[jvett77]

Halfway through those meaningless ST games, two guys standout:

Galvis - 9 for 30, .300. SS won't be a problem if he can do the same when it counts.
Herrera - 10 for 29, .345. He could send Revere to the back of the lineup.

Does Herrera have an outfield arm? Revere can hit and steal bases but he can't throw from any significant distance.

I haven't focused on his throws retro, but I'm thinking since he's 5'11'', 200 lbs vs Revere's 5'9", 170 lbs, he's gotta have a much better arm. Herrera, 23, averaged .294/.354/.377, and had 13 HRs, in the minors, 6 yrs. He's got a great shot at making it this year.

Yep Jvett, his size alone would dictate a better throwing distance based on kinesiology and physics. I hope Herrera does some damage in the outfield in the preseason.
