But seriously, if Ankiel could somehow learn to work as a LOOGY, he'd be awesome. He throw hard, and if a team tries to bring in righty batters, he can slide to the OF and then be brought back in the next batter if the team at bat tries to PH a lefty. Use him as a defensive sub in the OF and just have him as a threat to come in if the hitting team runs lefties up.
It would be amazing if he could get back to the show. I'm definitely pulling for him and I hope the nats give him a chance.
