Grant Green

I'm not too big a fan, but whatever A's got a legit prospect at a position that is just empty in the organization. Things I don't really like about Green, hes kind of big for a shortstop...which I realize its dumb for that to be a reason to not like him but it reminds me of crosby, so I immediately dont like that. they say he can field alrite, hit alrite, has some pop, has some speed, but the thing is no one really seems sure about this, the skills are there but the performance hasnt really been. I really doubt the A's woulda taken him if they had doubts about his sticking at short, so really he probably doesnt have to hit all that much to be useful to our team within the next few years, just as long as hes more capable than pennington. anyway back to things im not fond of, hes a boras client. hes kind of just this boring white guy whos never really going to be super crazy awesome. i mean fine, im not lookin for hanley here, but he doesnt really offer a few skills at least that are like, exceptional. hes just kinda decent at everything. so i guess what im saying is, great pick, hopefully he signs, the bored irrational fan in me is not amused.
