Did NOT like what I heard Melvin say yesterday.
Conforto is his LF and Yaz, his right.
If that's just preseason rhetoric, fine.
He sort of has to say that because they are the incumbents.
BUT I'm giving THAT noise the same value as him saying Lee hits lead off EVERY DAY, and Soler hits 4 hole EVERY DAY.
If one is true, so is the other.
Conforto in Left, instead of Yaz, or Matos or Fitz means balls will fall in gaps because at BEST, he's average.
And we have a BIG outfield.
I said when we opened the place, we need guys out there that can RUN!
He'd better hit a TON to make up for the balls he can't get to.
I'm still hoping we move him... but with the passing of each day, that looks less and less likely.
Again, Flores gets the short end of the stick.
