After a brutal start in Scranton, he's turning things around - hitting .319/.386/.451 in 28 games in June. He's still only 23, and as poorly as he's hit in MLB we're still only talking about 93 ABs over two seasons.

I would like to see Wade get another shot this year.
IMO, with Drury's remarkable positional flexibility (he has played RF, LF, 3B, 2B and 1B in the majors), he is essentially two bench guys in one. If the Yanks ever decide to end the Walker experiment, Wade should be the obvious beneficiary- and be given the chance to play all over as well.
Another guy I would like to see get a chance, though he isn't on the 40- and we would be unlikely to see him before September- is Abitial Avelino. He plays serious defense in the middle INF and has great SB skills- in addition to some power.
RE: RE: Florial is 20, in the FSL, and is missing a large chunk of this season
They won 3 out of 4. Their last 16 games were against the Yankees, Nats & Astros. They started with 3 losses to the Yankees in NY and then won 10 of the next 13. Pretty impressive.

Expecting him to be the starting CF in 2020 is nuts.
Maybe Ellsbury will be walking by then?
I laughed, haha.

At this point, he would probably tear a wrist ligament signing an autograph before his first game.
