After starting the season 1 for 25 and making prospect watchers a little edgy Brandon Drury went 2 for 3 last night with a walk. Not to worry folks. It's not as if Drury was waving at any and every pitch being throw his way. His K rate was only 12% and his BABIP was a ridiculous .045. He'll be fine and starting putting up some numbers, though it won't necessarily be a piece of cake in the pitching-centric Southern League. By mid-season if we're not getting more offense from our middle infield Drury will get his shot.
