Vitters

[stitchface]

Is there an actual change in approach reflected in his numbers since returning? Interestingly, all his walks are from right handed pitchers (he is mashing the lefties). I had given up hope on Vitters - should it be re-kindled?

this is kind of hilarious to me because I was just thinking that javy deserves his own thread

 

sorry for not contributing anything on the subject at hand.

The long, injury plagued season of Josh Vitters, may finally be done.

 

Iowa Cubs manager Marty Pevey said Thursday that he anticipated that the infielder/outfielder would miss the remainder of the season with a hamstring injury.

 

“Unfortunately with all the injuries that he’s had,” Pevey said before Thursday’s game.

Too bad - his very small sample numbers look very promising - even for an outfielder.

He's not done as a prospect, but any hope of being an MLB player next year are gone. If he can stay healthy and show something at AAA next year he still has a chance.

I don't know if there is no hope of him not being a MLB player next year, I'd assume they will have him play in a winter league this year and if he has a decent spring and then a good few, healthy, first months in AAA I could see him up sometime around mid-summer/ASB.

Well I was mainly thinking about opening day roster, but yea. It depends on if you have injuries or if one of your bench pieces is an already fringe player like Cody Ransom or not.
