Backlund is a guy that should have a conversation or three with Baerstchi. When Backlund arrived, there were lofty expectations too, and it took him a long time to develop into the excellent 2 way utility player that he is today. Backlund is awesome now, but it took him over 5 years.
If Baerstchi has a similar timeline, who cares as long as he gets there?
