What does Seattle have going for their rotation next season? Felix, Morrow, RRS and Olson? If Aumont is invited to ST and impresses they could be tempted, especially if he finds himself in AA before the end of the 2009 season, but I think they'll be smarter than to rush him like that.

The dude has only logged 55 innings in low-A ball and is one year out of high school. He's likely going to be fighting for a rotation slot at AA next year. Let’s not get carried away here.

I like what i'm seeing in Lopez lately. I watched the US/Venezuela game and he smoked three doubles if i recall correctly. Hopefully he's got the mobility to play second base again..

Aside from being bent at the knees more, it looks like he might be planting his feet a lot farther apart. unitispat – it does indeed look like Lopez might have tweaked his batting stance a little, yes – I was noticing it during yesterday’s USA/Venezuela game.

He looks like he is ready to compete in the bigs already. Maybe M's will call him up in September. Damn. He looks like he is ready to compete in the bigs already.

I missed the entire baseball year last year being in the Navy and all. Did Lopez change his stance? I see he hit the weight room like you mentioned a while back, anyway, his stance just doesnt look the same to me. He's bent at the knees more than I remember.
