I like Ackley and Smoak and I am sure I will love Catricala as well...but there is something special about the player who gets a taste of the MLB and essentially has to unlearn everything they have done up to that point to become effective.
I feel Carp is like Saunders in that respect, to a lesser extent.
It can't be a bad thing that we might have two outfielders who struggled, adjusted and are coming back TICKED and ready to murder pitchers for making them look silly the first time around.
I'm sure they will both have a 0-15 stretch which makes them doubt their game, but Carp in the second half of last year and Saunders so far in Spring Training have at least proved that they won't give up.
