His baseball instincts leave me puzzeled.

Tries to steal bases in bad situations.

Mental lapses in the field.

No adjustments at the plate during a game.

The rant '92:
I like Shaq and am glad he is with us but i just don't see him being the first overall pick, his free throws suck,i'd go with mourning, or Laettner

I watch him and continually scratch my head thinking how can a guy be so fast and have such slow and/or poor pitch recognition skill when hitting. The odds are against him, regardless. Many supposed five tool players who are drafted early never make it to the bigs, and he is not a five tool player.
Good luck to JM, I wish him the best.
