it is only worth taking a chance on him if he starts drinking red bull or something…watched him for too many years look like he would rather be taking a nap than an at bat. decent talent, just…sleepy and slow-reacting. I want to be very clear that I am not saying he wasn’t trying or was lazy (according to Shannon Drayer, who covered him in Seattle, he did all the fielding drills and did all the batting practice and worked hard) — it’s just that he always looked, to me, like he was actually, truly, half-asleep out there, or that he was reacting like he was moving in water.
