I think it will be ok though between Zoilo and Ramon Flores we should be ok with outfield depth for a year or so.

Mesa was also outrighted off the 40 man at the end of last season too so not looking good for a pinstripes return for him either. <br /><br />I am not entirely sold on Zoilo but he is a better option then Ichiro and Wells so at this point I would have to agree with throwing that lineup out there.

Adding those three bats to the mix I think we can have a Zolo type in the out-field and give him time to show what he can really do as a full-time player.<br /><br />What think you guys?<br />Ken Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07134936968221887101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2676591017018865408.post-23441957161160073282013-11-13T11:54:22.162-05:002013-11-13T11:54:22.162-05:00I got a few more of these planned lolI got a few more of these planned lolDaniel Burchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04212584396848733519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2676591017018865408.post-32523760429208374952013-11-13T10:23:38.549-05:002013-11-13T10:23:38.549-05:00This girl holding her head....is funny.
