So far, he's a completely different player than last year. It sure seems like he is over the face beaning, which I think is the reason for his poor 2024 season.
He certainly looks the part this year, but no clue on when they plan to make a move with him. He is still in AA, so I kind of think they don't see him as a piece this year for the big club. I'd like to give him a shot sometime after the deadline, but that's just me.
