Notes: LaPorta homered in 2 of the first 4 games. Who’s surprised? Who’s ticked off he can’t do it in Cleveland? Chisenhall also off to a fast start with only 1 K in 15 ABs. Slowey and Barnes with strong first starts.

Notes: Lindor out of the gate quickly and with 3 steals (2 CS). Curious to see how the power develops.
Here’s hoping that LaPorta and Chisenhall don’t turn into 4A players…
On a brighter note go go Francisco!
I think it’s a crime that LeVon Washington has basically disappeared from Twitter. His stuff (along with the #washtime) always cracked me up. Now I’m forced to pay attention to Thomas Neal, who just makes me sad. He even ate Easter dinner by himself at Applebee’s, and Tweeted about it.
Originally I thought Neal was a decent get for OCabrera, especially since the minor league cupboard was bare in the OF. Instead, he’s injury prone and eating alone in Applebee’s.
Hopefully Washington will justify his draft status (and contract) this year.
Sorry Stephanie, but you’ll have to pay attention to someone else. Thomas Neal was DA’d last week Wednesday.
