I laughed at the opening weekend lineup, which had Villalona, Ambort, and Neal batting 7, 8, 9 with Ford, Crawford, and Noonan batting 1, 2, 3. Crawford has since proved that to be prescient, but everything else was a bit of a head scratcher.

“A situation right here where a walk would not be the worst thing in the world.”
Because it usually is?

What is the scouting report on Neal? He’s only 21 and has been lighting it up recently(as I’m sure you all know). How much potential does he have?
He’s definitely shown some power potential this year. He does have a kinda long swing, though, so I wonder if his strike outs would shoot up against higher competition.
