Whatever it is though I may be in the minority but I really wanted to see how Geno was going to play.
I do agree with you though. I was hoping to see some improvement from him even if I don't have much confidence that you could win with him.

Yeah, and if you're using the "He's 19" logic, then I guess the best report a scout could give us is:
"I have no idea. He's a teenager. He may go through 5 arm surgeries between now and his 30th birthday. He may add a pitch. He may lose a pitch. He may put on 30 lbs and add velocity. He may put on 50 lbs and eat his way out of the league. I literally have no idea what he is going to be."
But thats not what these guys are paid to do, nor what we are looking for them to do, right?

That 2014 Idzik draft is the gift that keeps on giving.
Speaking of great personnel moves, in case anyone was wondering what Idzik's prized FA signing from a year ago has been doing since going AWOL from camp last year:
Free agent CB Dimitri Patterson is facing a felony child-abuse charge stemming from an August 1 incident at a South Florida mall. Patterson met his ex-girlfriend at the mall for a custody exchange of their one-year-old son. The two got in an argument, and Patterson allegedly turned aggressive, grabbed his ex-girlfriend by the neck and threw her to the ground. The young child was in his mother's arms and ended up hitting the ground as well, resulting in a bruise on the back of his head. Patterson last played in 2013.
