Jankowski's definitely talented, no question. And the org has been extremely patient in bringing him along. I just don't see a lot of fire in the guy. I don't know. He's a solid PKer and certainly has skill. But those of us who'd hoped he'd step in for Backlund someday will surely be disappointed.

I'd rather see a 4th line C with some more hustle and jam. That's the gig, ultimately. Janko's a talented softie with lacklustre interest. That's how I see it.
