Wha...What Adam has that Nick doesn't is speed.<br /><br />What Nick has that Adam doesn't is that he's a righty and we have a TON of lefties.David Grovemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12875215313946272763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-592615130369356022.post-88995377254115685572011-11-30T16:08:00.027-05:002011-11-30T16:08:00.027-05:00It is a little puzzling to me we let Nick Evans wa...It is a little puzzling to me we let Nick Evans walk away in order to secure a non-40 man roster spot for Adam Loewen. His offensive season here was rather similar to Evans' breakout year in 2010. Maybe he has better defensive skills...who knows?<br /><br />The Rottino signing is much more interesting to me because of his versatility -- OF and catcher. Is he the new Eli Marrero? How many remember he was who we received when we banished Kaz Matsui to Colorado?<br /><br />Regarding Vinny "Crash Davis" Pascucci, he is what he is -- a career minor leaguer who probably would hit a little in the bigs but doesn't field any position well enough to find out.Reese Kaplanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12993445356545875409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-592615130369356022.post-76322947353000412142011-11-30T15:34:26.918-05:002011-11-30T15:34:26.918-05:00"Signed Adam Loewen - 5.38 career major leagu..."Signed Adam Loewen - 5.38 career major league ERA -35 games... oh yeah, he now plays OF"<br /><br />This was a great VALUE-Minded pickup.<br /><br />It also adds to talent in Buffalo so we don't need to yawn through more articles about Buffalo wanting a new franchise to control their minor league team.<br /><br />At Best: Adam will be a version of Rick Ankiel (maybe like that glimpse of dominant power we once saw)<br /><br />At Worst: He plays in AAA and hits some homers.David Grovemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12875215313946272763noreply@blogger.com
