.553 slg vs the knuckler. What's the first rule of holes? When you find yourself stuck in a hole, stop digging.

Seems like Ortiz started off ok but is morphing into a pumpkin

Looks like we got ourselves a 3rd baseman that can hit righties!   :D

Dion is a dilemma. He seems to have a couple of untouchable pitches, good control, and Ks tons of guys. He could be a killer back end guy, but is he more useful throwing more innings as a bulk guy?

Ortiz has kind of stopped being selective. Old Ruiz problem

Doesn’t much matter if he’s surrounded by turds

Crews should have had that. Jumped to the right of the ball.

DC3 really can't play the outfield, can he?

Crews sucks at the wall. He wasn’t even close with his glove to catching it.

He really is a terrible outfielder...he has a pretty good arm, but that's about it...

They need to move him back into left and see if he can cut it there...he can't play right or center...

I agree with Aspen that he's trouble at the wall, but he has very good range. I wouldn’t say he's below average defensively.  IIRC he rates out well.

He's fast, but his routes suck...

this is just wrong. His arm is too good for left. He's better in center, but he's just no JY.
