Re: Dalbec...they mentioned on the radio yesterday that he was a good college pitcher - something I knew nothing about. Here's an article about that.

I know he wants to be a position player, but if he continues to struggle at the plate, if he can throw 95 with a good slider as Cora says he can, then maybe he should reconsider being a potential bullpen arm who could also pinch-hit in games when he isn't pitching.
