You can't really compare AAA to the majors, though. The lack of skill the pitchers have + less pressure helps a lot of guys. We are hoping and expecting Flores does well down there, but you can't assume he'd do the same thing here. I'm hoping he has a great season in AAA this year, and then is ready for a full season w/ the Nats next season. That really does seem like the best plan at this point.
Flores is miles better than both Lo Duca and Estrada NOW. Both at the plate and behind the plate. There is no doubt in my mind. What do we have to lose anyways? We are the worst team in the Majors.
