I would have been just as happy to see an outfield of Lewis in left, Winn in center, and Schierholtz in right, having never wasted 60 million for the warrior, yet free swinging and free diving Aaron Rowand. Since we have Rowand we will probably never know for sure what Schierholtz can do as a full time starter. Lets see what Sandoval can do at third and Ishikawa can do at first. One can play for too long in the minors and pass a critical time where they stop getting better but at a certain age they probably would continue to improve in the majors. Phelps, can platoon with Ishikawa, or if we re-sign Aurillia, he can platoon at first and also pick up some games at third. I would also have liked to see Bowker develop in the majors. But if he does not make the team I would like him to play a full year at Fresno. Perhaps if Guzman is a real prospect he could change around some of the players, but all information so far has him as a butcher in the field. Maybe we can get a good look at him in Spring Training. I was not overly impressed by Tyler Walker, but I thought he could get out Righties. I guess thats why Bochy kept putting him in vs. Lefties. Well Taschner, who by all accounts is a great guy, couldn't get anybody out the second half of the season, nor could he throw strikes. Getting back to Walker, I am not sure that Howry is going to be any better. We shall see. The rotation looks good, and if Lowry comes back he can either be trade bait, or he could send Sanchez to the pen for one more year. One never knows with Sabean, but the time April starts the Roster could be much different.
