In the four games I watched, it's a disaster in waiting.

If it turns out that he can't play second, then someone needs to get a day off in the outfield or 3B almost every day, because he has been our best hitter in spring so far.

A triple eh?

4th inning
 

Top 4th

Hamilton flies out to left
Cruz grounds out to pitcher
Blalock triples to right
Byrd reaches, Blalock scores on an Error by SS
Murphy grounds out to pitcher

1 run, 1 hit, 1 error

Bottom 4th

Gordon doubles to center
Shealy doubles to right, Gordon to third
Olivo strikes out (swinging)
Error by 1B (dropped foul fly)
Aviles pops out to third
Shealy to third, Gordon scores on a Wild Pitch
Crisp strikes out (looking)

1 run, 2 hits, 1 error

His spring bat has been fine. However, in the field he looks like a guy who has been moved all over creation. Doesn't look real confident on any ball hit at him.

Well, not sure if he can really pitch yet or not, but Ho Ram can definitely field his position on the mound.

I was at the game last Sunday when he gave 6 in the 1st and 3 in the 2nd. Course there was a 35 MPH wind blowing out to CF and there were 40 hits and 30 runs that day.

Ya, I saw the box on that one. He MIGHT be our #5, but that's about it.

Pretty wild. Everything hit in the air went out. And anything that was hit hard went out of the park. And I mean out. 4 balls cleared the stadium concourse.

5th inning
 

Top 5th

Saltalamacchia triples to center
Vizquel grounds out to shortstop, Saltalamacchia scores
Kinsler flies out to left
Young strikes out (swinging)

1 run, 1 hit

Bottom 5th

DeJesus grounds out to second
Teahen strikes out (swinging)
Guillen flies out to right

0 runs, 0 hits

wow, you dont hear a 3-triple game very often

There was a small blurb in the AZ paper that mentioned the coaching staff wasn't allowing Ramirez to use all his pitches in that game. He had to use only fastball / cut fastball.

Might as well have had him throwing beach balls up there..
