Hawk & Steve's baseball blog: Ryan Sweeney

Ryan Sweeney

With the season winding down, one guy we're all watching get some valuable big league at-bats this week is Ryan Sweeney. He's got a chance to be a real solid player at this level - that's why he's here.

He seems to take the first pitch on every at-bat, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.  It shows a patience that many young hitters don't possess.

I've talked at length about Ryan with Razor Shines, his minor league manager, and he thinks the world of this kid, both as a person and as a player.  In these last few games, he has the chance to make an impression and give himself something to build on going into next year.
