How much faith...

[wannabegriffey]

...do you have in young guys coner Gillespie and Logan Morrison .

I'm kind of thinking they are under the radar. They have some mlb time in and are young.

Worth acquiring ?

Morrison more than Gillespie for me, but neither should be considered saviors IMO

[revo]

I'll go the opposite way. LoMo has proven himself to be a mid-.240s hitter with just his sophomore season as an outlier (at least in terms of power). Gillaspie is doing it now, which is more than LoMo can say. LoMo may not have many chances left, while Gillaspie is currently 10th in the AL in BA.

One would have to think LoMo is on his second strike while Gillaspie has many chances left, even with Matt Davidson as his eventual successor.

I was afraid this was another religion thread!

More faith in Gillaspie

[cavebird]

I think these guys are under the radar because they have been hit by enemy fire and a leaking serious fuel. If you want to ride one of these bombs, be my guest, but I think we know how it will turn out. Talk about Slim Pickens.....

More seriously, LoMo has only moderate power with too many popups to have anything but a mediocre batting average. Connor Gillespie looks like a slightly poorer man's Chris Johnson.

LoMo plays at Safeco and is the mix of Smoak (again) and Corey Hart. Do not put too much faith in him. If I had a choice I'd pick Gillespie.

Now add Morales and Montero (really?) to the mix.
