Eventual replacement for Hosmer at first?

Doesn’t get rave reviews on his defense as a catcher or OF.

Mike_Davis
Nope. DH or LF in a pinch. He really has no position.
SupremeZeus
Nice guy, light tower power, but he is a AAAA Player or 4K per dayer.

TheAdrianBeltre
So nice, had to say it thrice!
Whyamihere
What kind of reviews does he get on his defense as a catcher or OF?
pinkerton

statmaster96
Legitimately made me lol
kmh878s
Haha same here
davidcoonce74
I’ve read somewhere that they aren’t raving about his defense.
lesterdnightfly
Raveless.
Notable for the absence of rave factor.
Ravelorn.
Bereft of rave.
As barren of rave as the bleak winter of Newfoundland is barren of bikinis.
pinkerton
that was just beautiful.

Doesn’t get rave reviews from the MLBTR reader with the username jwood on his defense at catcher or OF.
pinkerton
he doesn’t? I thought jwood was keen on giving rave reviews on his defense at catcher or OF. But on second reading, and after thinking about it over a drink and a cigarette, it does appear that indeed, the ballplayer in question that jwood is referencing does not get rave reviews on his defense at catcher or OF.
(I can’t help it. I’m bored.)

He does get rave reviews on the lack of defensive ability he has at SS/2B/CF.

Sometimes I just come back to this article to chuckle at these comments. They are still here, and still chuckle-worthy

Still chuckling

Years later, I still look it up at times to giggle.

A cautionary tale for any team considering home grown NYY prospects. As with O’Brien, Aaron Judge’s name keeps coming up in trade rumors for a reason.
MB923
The only time Judges name has came up in a rumor is for Quintana (and no, obviously not as the centerpiece)
jdgoat
You could say this about every team
lesterdnightfly
Another Calvin Pickering….
dodgerfan711
Another failure of the disfunction dbacks
Binnster
Another idiot from Cali…
MJ 3
So the Dbacks sold high on O’Brian.
nailz#4life
Isn’t he Petes son , ex catcher for the Braves??
BravesCanada
I think you mean Charlie, and no lol

Sometimes a change of scenery can do wonders for a young player. I hope that’s the case for him. I like to support both Missouri teams
mcdusty31
Yes but will his rave reviews get better in Missouri?
cardinalfanforever
Only time will tell
cardinalfanforever
I think he’s actually Conan O’Brien’s son lol
pinkerton
are the Royals aware of the rave/not rave reviews?
dutch91701
The word’s getting around. It’s everywhere. I’m sure they’re vaguely aware
mcdusty31
Now that he’s off my minor league keeper roster he’ll probably come up and hit 40 homers
angelsinthetroutfield
Hope he finds success in KC. Always felt he could become a Russell Branyan type…
baseball10
If u tell me all i have to give up is a 25 yr old AA reliever then sign me up for this deal

CAFARDO’S LATEST
Among Nick Cafardo’s latest MLB scoops:
Newly acquired Royals farmhand Peter O’Brien is “absolutely getting rave reviews for his defense as a catcher and OF”, according to Cafardo’s high-ranking sources.
JoeyPankake
Cafardo is a raving lunatic.
pinkerton
what does Olney think? Then we’ll have a story!
alexgordonbeckham
I love how about half (if not more) of the comments are poking fun at the guy who posted the same thing multiple times lol
schellis 2
That poster is obviously not getting rave reviews for his posting ability.
Cave
Anyone leaving rave reviews in 2019?
gallenofbeer
2020 here. If you knew what was good for you, you’d stay in 2019.
