[QUOTE="Golden Tornadoes, post: 1011485, member: 5881"] Yeah, you're right about Bummer having already pitched. I just looked and he even put Dylan Lee out there too so Snit must have known about the Mets struggling against lefties. I'm interested in seeing how Ray Kerr does as another lefty option. I agree about Acuna. I think he wants to make an impact so badly that he jumps at the first chance he gets. He is super talented, but like many younger players, I'm not sure how much he analyzes the game. Not really knocking him, but young guys tend to let their talent do the talking and the older guys study the game in order to maximize what talent they have left to impact the game. Opposing teams have figured out two things about him that they are exploiting: He struggles with high fastballs, and he is too jumpy on the basepaths. Getting into scoring position is great, but not at the expense of getting yourself out. Sometimes it's better to trust your teammates and go from first to third on a single than to get yourself picked off without giving anybody a chance to advance you. Again, I love Acuna and think he has talent out of this world, but you also gotta be smart about using your talent too. [/QUOTE]
