MIke: Wyatt Matheson, right?
I”m not sure I’m spelling his name right, but yeah, us Bucs fans are pretty pumped about him.

Middlebrooks is the only prospect that has done anything since I traded him away for a misc veteran 3 yrs ago. I’m still not convinced he won’t struggle but it appears that he will have a solid MLB career.
I thought the same thing about Wladimir Balentien (Lastings Milledge) when watching the WBC. He has a good thing going in Japan and he would have to battle for a starting position in the majors. A quick note – foreign earned income is only exempt from US taxes up to 92,500/yr.
Forgot to make a comment about Gattis mania getting out of hand. It’s a great story that any baseball fan has to enjoy though.
Zunino v. d’Arnaud. Too tough to call? It seems like Zunino has passed d’Arnaud by.
Agree.
