Gonna let you know there is a spelling error in the "frist" line Ben. I don't want the Grammar Police coming after you.

Now please don't be Tyler Colvin...please?

He has no idea of the strike zone. None whatsoever. His glove may play in CF, but his bat won't. Likely to be a 4th OF'er like Colvin.

Brant Brown, Doug Glanville, Tuffy Rhodes, Corey Patterson, Felix Pie ... this guy has big shoes to fill.
Kind of reminds me of the left fielder who had to replace Ted Williams, Yaz, and Jim Rice.

That would of course be Mike Greenwell who was a good ball player.
