Eldridge-nice first impression.  450 foot HR in second AB. JT Snow  is going to be in camp as a guest instructor.  I’d hire him full time as a so-called roving instructor.  He’d roam to wherever Eldridge is playing.  He never played first base prior to last year. 18 errors.  

 As a two way player he mostly DH’d when he didn’t pitch.  It’s going to take some time for him to be a viable defender.  Question will be - if he tears it up in Sac, but isn’t ready defensively, do they call him up and have him DH?  Thats not a long term ‘solution”.  But he could continue working on his defense before and between games.  

I’m hoping he forces the issue.

Eldridge was a two way player? Didn't see that in his stats from last year. . . .
