    I tuned in to see how Yadi looks behind the plate and he’s DH, not C. Any tips what’s up? I’d gather he would C tonight, DH tomorrow.

    He hit a grounder that couldn’t quite be fielded in his first AB, for an infield single. He was then forced. I didn’t see him going full speed, so don’t know how he looked running.

    Hey Gags, glad to see you back. I think his knees are done. We’ll see what happens the next couple games there in Memphis.

    they ruled the grounder as an error. second time up, a deep fly.

    Bling-

    I’d think they would be pretty shot, but before he went DL, I thought he still looked like he had enough that he could get through a couple or three months, particularly with some days off. I wonder if he’s realizing he needs more work than expected before he can make a return to St. Louis….

    Third time up, he hits another grounder. And on a hard play the SS throws it away. Molina looked like regular Yadi speed running to second to my eye, not bad knee Yadi. Yadi then stole third without a throw (reading it so he got an enormous jump) and scored on a single.

    That’s encouraging, thanks for the eye witness reporting.

    My guess would be they have had him catch on the side and know he can. Why waste more knee strain if unnecessary?

    Any word on the hand? Yadi took one on the hand in his last ab.

    Didn’t appear to be serious, but nothing official yet.
