Yea, baseball isn't really his thing.

 

lmfao and he just said that Theriot is too winded from windsprints to join him and he'll be on tomorrow.

[MarqPTM]

Theriot is tired from wind sprints. He will be showing up tomorrow.

That's the definition of heart and grit right there people.

Let's not forget that our major reason for loving The Riot are his intangibles. You can't measure how many times his hustle beat out a throw. Its hard to measure the amount of great defensive plays. You don't score how many times his great attitude rubs off on the superstars. Quiet leaders by example are not recognized.

Theriot is on now...

Not really. Says he loves playing with DeRo but it's win/win whether he's paired with Roberts or DeRosa. Obviously it takes time for middle infielders to develop a rapport, blah blah.

 

Said he took a ton of swings this off-season in order to be a more consistent hitter next year.

 

Nothing earth shattering or new, really.

I can swing the bat a million times and still not be any better at baseball, too.

 

That said, I really hope he does come around and start...you know...being good. Because it would make life so much easier.

I can't see him being good, but I think he has the potential with more consistency to be up to Eckstein level production, which is basically bouncing between seasons like the one he had last year and seasons in the 740-750 OPS range. If he puts up a 700 OPS next year, he'll still be one of the worst SS's in the game, but it won't be a huge difference between him and the average SS.

 

Disclaimer: If we can find any upgrade anywhere at SS, I'm all for it. I am by no means advocating breaking camp with Theriot. I just think he can possibly be a little better than guaranteed to be terrible.

What are his thoughts on riding the bench while Derosa starts at SS and Roberts at 2nd. Someone needs to get him on the juice.
