However, at other times he looked completely lost and off-balance. Hopefully he can remain focused and do something with all that potential of his.
This is a huge season for Rasmus and Lind. This has to be the final time in either of their careers that they are just handed a starting spot. If they don't do something with this opportunity then they will be stuck as bit players unless they have a major turnaround. Lets see what you got, boys!

Rasmus and Lind are in pretty different places though. Rasumus and his glove in CF makes him valuable alone. Lind could be out of the majors after this season but Rasmus will be here for a long time.
