I saw "Jon Jay traded" and was just happy to clear the payroll.
Getting a guy who is
exactly the RH utility IFer with pop that Mozeliak said he was looking for coming into the offseason for him is just outstanding. It's even more incredible when you consider that Gyorko does have some upside left. He's probably not All-Star candidate that he appeared to be as a rookie, but he's just hitting his prime years - there's still room for development here.
Then again, Matheny managed to make Bourjos a complete non-factor within a month of his first season here so I am confident he can sufficiently bury and mind-**** Gyorko as well. The good news is that I'm getting more and more confident that Mozeliak will pull the trigger on Matheny if he keeps this shit up.
