Small sample size I know - but he does look a lot better.

If he becomes just a starting level player that's a huge development for the team.

Yes, because Lord knows they’re not signing anyone.

I will happily eat crow about wanting him in AAA. I hope he keeps up the great work in the field and at the plate. It was cool to hear respect for his "cannon in RF" on the national broadcast.

He's hitting the [expletive] out of the ball. He'll still whiff a lot. But this is awesome to watch. Maybe he should hit cleanup over Winn!

I'd say he's earned at least another week as a starter.

This is actually the best he’s looked. Including two years ago. Not totally a believer yet but definitely keep him in cleanup over Winn right now. Winn was fine when there weren’t apparent better options, but now it’s clearly the better option.
