I've now seen 4 at bats from Conner Joe, and though it's still way too early for an evaluation, I will say this; (and echoing Mike Krukow), the guy doesn't get cheated with his swings at the plate.
Some really impressive bat speed, and I was surprised at how well he runs.
We'll see...

I was surprised at his speed. He's stolen only 10 bases in 25 attempts in his minor and major league career. What I like is that he seems to have plenty of speed to play the outfield, even though I believe he's primarily a corner infielder. He posted a .979 OPS in AA last season, and .879 in AAA.
If he makes the 25-man roster though, it could come at the expense of Pablo Sandoval. The Giants might be able to sneak Joe through waivers. There will be a lot of players on waivers the next two or three days.

Glad you found a player you like a little though. Hopefully he won't disappear, either literally or figuratively.
