I don't mean Haase plays like Lucroy...I mean he looks like him, in the face. At least I think he does.
But shit, I hope he turns into a Lucroy type catcher.
And Ronny Rodriguez does nothing for me. Good organizational depth, and he might get a 40 man spot out of necessity this next year since I don't think we keep both Gio and Erik Gonzalez...but he has no business being protected for the rule 5 draft. If someone takes him, wish them luck, cause they are wasting a 25 man spot.
Looking at his numbers at 2B and in the OF, they actually are not bad at all. His OBP is pretty bad and normally off of those numbers it is hard to succeed in the pros. It is quite possible though in due time he actually could at least be a solid bench defensive player at 2B. With so many guys leaving in 18, i think by default he gets added to the 40 man roster. I am not saying i will ever expect anything from him, but he has gotten a lot better in the field over the last few seasons and as a pro his best season he ever had was in 17. I haven't gotten to watch him, but just hunch says he has settled down and found out who he is. A little more plate discipline and probably some minor adjustments in his swing its possible he plays in the pros as much as you hate the guy.
