Does anyone have any insight as to why he wasn't given a look when Berkman was out last year?
"The Miami product showed an all-or-nothing approach in eight pro seasons, batting .249/.303/.444 in affiliated ball. He also stands as the Pacific Coast League's record holder for most strikeouts in a season, which he accomplished when he fanned 183 times with Round Rock in '06."
If you watch him at the plate, you will see. He gets fooled too often and does not really have the bat speed to make the most of it unless he guesses right. MLB pitching would eat him alive.
