Olt has been on a tear since his vision issues were corrected.

 

 

.290/.410/.710 with 4 2B and 3 HR in last 31 at-bats.

 

very small sample but does suggest he can see.

Indeed. He had floaters which will [expletive] with you at first but arent anything to worry about.

But the Ks are still there. He's back to being 2012 Brett Jackson instead of being 2013 Brett Jackson.

 

meh, I don't care about ks or batting average.

Olt doesnt have the PAs in AAA to compare him to Jackson yet.

They matter if you're K'ing 30% of the time in AAA.

You should care about Ks for prospects.

Probably his frame, lack of other strong pitches.

While they certainly are relevant and meaningful, a lot of people on here have still managed to make Olt's K% in AAA a bigger deal than it is.

Again, not enough PAs to judge, especially post-eye issues.

According to B-R he's 6'2''.

 

That's what BP and MILB say as well... 6' 2"...

I'm okay with this return. Nice thing is we didn't have to give them Russell, so we can still flip him for something good.

Yep. Russell, Gregg and possibly Soriano and Schierholz still to go.

OK, then. Introduce the kid to the weight room and foods with fat and we'll have something.
