    I'm not ready to write him off just yet. I mean I liked the signing myself but felt it was risky

    I don't know brothers, but I'm hurting real bad inside.

    He’s the only first baseman they have. Hensley but 0 for 18.

    His swing looks like a player that might hit 5-10 homers a year.

    Julks/Diaz could eventually play 1B some, but I'm not sold on either of those vs MLB pitching just yet.

    But they're not benching Abreu, so it's kind of silly to fantasize about.

    At least Hensley hit it hard that time. Progress.

    Are you of the opinion that Abreu will come around? Sooner or Later? He has got to be the weakest .250 hitter I have ever seen before. Absolutely no power. After the 0 for 2 tonight he is now down to .245. The way he is going he is going to give Maldy a run for his money.

    You would think he can't possibly be this bad forever. And I'd prefer the Sooner (you'll never hear me say that often).

    He could at least have the decency to elevate his mustache game, no?

    Abreu is dreadful right now but I'm giving him until mid to late May to get it going. If he doesn't then I will call it a busted signing.
