“A lot of people read things (in the media) but they don’t really know what kind of guy I am,” Escobar said after Thursday’s team workout. “I’m a player who has always given a lot for my team. I’ve lost my form a little bit (compared to 2007 and 2008) but I’m an aggressive player.”


Encouraging that Escobar wants to take on his detractors head-on. Upgrading talent is rarely a mistake and this quote shows me the kid has some E.Q. and a desire to win. I continue to really lilke the moves AA is making.

I love watching players in the "dont you wish you didnt give up on me??" mode. Look at Vladdy this year after the Angels didnt even offer to bring him back.

I don't mean to discredit him... but who wouldn't say that in this situation? It's his word against the Braves organation's, we'll just have to wait and see if he can prove himself right.

Definitely not after that slam.
