I agree with you on O’Neil just a very pesky hitter that has tremendous plate discipline, plate coverage and bat control but no power at all. If O’Neil doesn’t get an opportunity with the Cardinals he could get a type of specific role with another major league club since he knows how to get on base at a high rate and plays all three OF positions.

Curtis is probably an org guy, but I wouldn’t be too surprised to see him get a cup of coffee or two, or possibly a utility/DH role with a second-division AL team, before he’s done. (Houston, do you copy?)

O’Neill … well, it isn’t clear yet exactly what he is, but “org guy” probably is not the right description. Guys with his tool set (tremendous plate discipline, plate coverage, and bat control, but no power at all) can go anywhere from “washed out at AA” to “long and interesting major-league career a la David Eckstein.” It’s just too early to tell with him. He’ll be interesting to watch next year, although the odds are against him.

That’s Mozeliak pushing Matheny to start Kozma so that Mo can prove that he was indeed a better draft pick then Rick Porcello.

It must be Kozma who has the pictures….

That’s a good question..I don’t know why Matheny is so reluctant to start Jackson..i’d like to see what he can do with a couple games in a row starting

Why do cards play kosma ahead of Jackson? I thought Jackson was a steadier, less error prone shortstop with more range at least in Memphis. He also seemed a better hitter.

O’Neill’s HR was his first of the season and second of his career. You talk about good timing!

Last night was Greg Garcia’s 12th HR of the year (10 in season and 2 in playoffs). He was also HBP last night about an inning after Frisco’s Mike Napoli (rehabbing Ranger) was HBP. Retaliation??? Probably not.

We can than Dennis Martinez for smoothing out C-Mart delivery to be less violent he’s been real effective ever since he recoiled his delivery.
