Around SBN: Cal RB Jahvid Best Seriously Injured, Carted Off Field

Also of pre-game interest, Willy Aybar and Dan Johnson are both getting some work in the outfield with coach George Hendrick, which creates some interesting thoughts about the potential postseason roster.

Aybar

If Aybar can play even a below-average OF, he’s straight-up a better option than Zobrist, who sucks at every position.

I really wish they would have done this sooner.

I would love to have Aybar’s bat in LF everyday until CC is healthy (basically next year).

with the new schedule out,

start off april not only on the road playing in cold cities, but we go 15 road v 8 home games. i swear the league sched makers hate us.

I would believe it.

You would think the team with the dome would have more home dates to start off… but no.

RJ will ban you for logic. (at least you didn’t use any numbers.)

to my knowledge, yes.

About damn time.....

I been thinking why not Willy in RF for a while. His arm can’t be that bad. Now if he could play LF and have Gross in RF. Be nice.

Tonight is a perfect example as to why they should have done this sooner.

Zobrist and Gross are starting in the OF (against a lefty) and Aybar isn’t in the lineup.
