Did Prince used to be able to catch up to that high inside fastball?

Elvis, the only reason I'm not cussing your ass is the amazing play you made last inning.

And I know Banny said a player shouldn't lose his position due to injury. Well, Martin is healthy and DDJ is playing him so far under the table it's not even funny. Martin looks like a late inning defensive replacement for Hamilton or Choo to me.

I am for that and would like to see Blanks in left and DDJ in CF in the meantime.

Holt earned that walk. Good pitching by Wandy.

I would too, but Banny may be giving Martin every chance possible in the mean time to fight for his spot because he knows Blanks is a bench bound player anyways. DDJ is blowing Martin away in this audition for the CF position.

I'm actually not absolutely hating that bunt.

I wouldn't let DeShields run here.

Nice when you can get a K on 5 balls.

We lose some defense and definitely some arm in CF, but Deshields gives one thing we need right now, baserunners with his willingness to work the count and take a walk and have smart ABs

Can't really say for certain how much difference in power there would be as DDJ's minor league league numbers at least suggest similar power potential as Martin

Haven't been able to gauge DDJ's arm much, but his defense has been at least solid in the OF so far

Basically reiterating the fact that Martin is fighting for his job right now and he's losing that battle badly

Do we have a defensive replacement for RF? Choo scares me.

No doubt. He has shown he can look learn on the job. This is the best we are going to get from Martin.
