re: Kling can't hit.

Maineri had a kid (can’t remember name) who didn’t hit well but was a great CF. Blond-headed boy who made many great catches. He was almost an automatic out but he played because he could cover half the OF on his own.

And then the next season, he improved and one of the best hitters on the team. Eventually made it to the bigs and was a solid backup OF. I'm assuming you're talking about Andrew Stevenson.

So thanks for pointing out that it's possible to improve as a hitter over time.
