Is the season half empty or half full? Hard to say, but it’s certainly half over. Here’s some of what the Eyeball Scout is seeing these days...
Beau Taylor
Taylor’s days with Oakland are inherently limited by Chris Herrmann’s 30 day rehab. So likely no matter what he shows, Taylor will be optioned when the All-Star break concludes and Herrmann’s rehab is over.
The Eyeball Scout has sure liked what he has seen, though. It’s not that Taylor is a good major league hitter, as undoubtedly over time he would be exposed as the 29-year old journeyman his resume suggests he is.
