I don't know about you guys but I'm impressed.

He's always had a great approach, a career .300+ batting average in the minors and above average discipline.

He's basically a better version of JB Shuck. I could see him and Cowgill sticking after Calhoun/Hamilton come back.

If we continue to carry Santiago as our short and long guy out of the bullpen we can go with one less bullpen arm for the rest of the season, and carry an extra bat.

if we got the bullpen sorted out, i could see carrying a deep bench.

It was when he started playing LF and RF that his value to this org grew.

It will be interesting to see what happens when Freese, Hamilton, and Calhoun all return at or before the end of the month.

Is it possible to carry only 11 pitchers when 3 of your starters don't have a lot of MLB experience and a 4th may be in an innings decline (Weaver)?

Plus not counting Stewart (DL possibility), the Halos have already had FIVE players on the DL just 22% of the way into the season.

Not sure where he fits in, hes blocked by a few other guys. But glad hes getting a shot at least. He seems like a good guy.

[Redondo]

I like what he's done already. Making his case so we have to consider keeping him on the roster.

[JAHV76]

Maybe the Angels are showcasing him for a possible trade? Once Hamilton and Calhoun are back they have depth in the OF

[Fontana Halo]

I've been telling you guys about him for over a year now. Dude is going to be a solid player.

[jsnpritchett]

Chuck, you said the same thing about Stewart earlier this season.  

[Broad Street]

Why can't he play 3rd?

[markb]

Why can't he play 3rd?

 

Uh he's left handed.

Chuck, you said the same thing about Stewart earlier this season.  

 

Don't be a dick, Jason. Should I refrain from commenting on a player who I think looks great in short stints? It is not my fault if they start slumping. 

 

My thread about Stewart was suggesting we should platoon them because Freese was in a terrible slump (like Stewart is now). At the time Stewart didn't look like shit like he has been the past few weeks. I was tracking Stewart's ST at bats and the first two weeks of sporadic at bats he got. Once given a larger role pitchers he started sucking. 

 

Two different players, Jason.
