Meckler Part II

[klaiggeb]

Can't say enough about Meckler's heady base running the other day.

I would argue that MOST players would have, and foolishly, gone 1/2 way, waiting to see if the ball dropped.

Meck didn't, and because he didn't, made a spectacular, but from I've seen, mostly unheralded play.

Kid really bounced back from a horrible night not only with that play, but the entire game.

And let's not forget his solid whack against a LHP!

He's still over his head, but that's to be expected.

I like/love how he is adjusting!


And I love his speed!

Not sure but he "seems" to be the fastest player we've had since Fast Freddy Lewis.

Good heads up running by Meckler that might make him feel more comfortable with the team going forward. Turned out to be a huge insurance run because Meckler was having trouble locating that last flyout because of the glare.

Sounds like he's getting acclimated ...

He is a smart but he's a rookie, and it's going to take time.

Has a rookie who went so quickly through the system, we can expect more mistakes, but as long as you learns and grows from them, in a year or two he should be a big time player.
