Nate, sorry to pile on here, but do you know how long Golden is going to be out?

Hey Nate,

 

Should fans feel ... confident about Taiwan and Marco's improved hitting of late? Is it fair to wonder if Marco was pressing for a period there?

 

Also, if Wells is piggybacking off Concepcion, does that mean Burke is going to stay as a "full load" guy with Francescon/Rosario/Jensen?

 

Taiwan is looking a lot better for sure. Made some adjustments, has confidence as well. I really think moving to the #2 slot helped him a lot.

 

Its tough to tell with Marco, he still doesnt look all the comfortable or confident at the plate but is obviously getting more hits now than he was early. I think its fair to say he wasn't comfortable in cold weather and was also pressing a bit.

 

Yes Burke is a full load starter with the other 3 now.

Pile on all you want! I have not heard any updates on Reggie at all.

Appreciate that Rob, I go with navy blue used by my Alma Mater Marquette. Though the carolina blue jerseys we wear now are really sweet too.

Did not know there were two fellow Marquette alumni broadcasting in the Cubs' system! Awesome.

Yep. Len was a few years ahead of me and was around in an advisor type role with the TV station at MU my last couple of years while he was working for the Brewers. Since he joined the Cubs org he has been extremely helpful to me and very gracious with his time while passing along advice. Great guy off the air and a model for how broadcasters should treat and work with the generation below them.

I notice they're not attempting to get jobs in Milwaukee for some reason.

Not surprised in the least, but great to hear all the same.

I know, right? Who would want to work for the Brewers?
