Abrams looks like a SS; Garcia never has.

He really does. A 15-year old shortstop.

Call looks like he wants to get a running start and hit the ball like he's Happy Gilmore teeing off.  What a weird set-up.

He got most of it.  He's just not a power hitter.

In other action tonight, Soto and Bell went a combine 0-7 as the Marlins shut out the Padres 3-0.
