    I'm always one to look a gift horse in the mouth. He was a little old for AA at 25, and regressed somewhat from the standout numbers he had there as a 24 year old. Given the Phillies' risk at first base with Howard's injury at the end of last season, I'm wondering why that team would give up on him at this moment. Can hope for the best, but right now I'd project him as a .700 OPS guy at the major league level; not chopped liver but if he can only play 1B or cover DH, he's replacement level at best. Hope he tears it up at Rochester.

    I seem to recall early in 2011 that Gardy commented, on trying to get Nishi going, that they had film of him doing well in Japan but no film of when he did poorly, making it hard to offer advice. I definitely chose to read frustration with the scouting, on that one.

    Mr. Ed, I guess that was my point, to dispute whatever weak excuse Doyle seemed to think he had.

    Wow, Thrylos's spreadsheet with the three colors happens to have nailed the four position players who were cut. Exactly four guys are in red, all four are cut. (Butera and Florimon were green in today's game to bring themselves to yellow for the Spring, somehow "justifying after the fact" these roster decisions.) On the pitching side, it wasn't quite as accurate, with some guys in yellow going down and guys in red continuing for a few more days at least.

    Thrylos has a point; on the other hand if Doyle needs to know (like a starter) well in advance when he'll be pitching then he's not a great candidate for the bullpen duties that a Rule-5 draftee often draws.
