How long before this dude realizes he's hitting .353 and leading in RBI's?

He does have* a minor league track record so could wind up having a solid season. You never know.

Favorite player on my team this year. He is hitting behind Dozier, Mauer, and Plouffe, so he will certainly have RBI opportunities if he stays there in the lineup. Like papz said, he had some quality numbers in the minors. I hope he sticks.

I'd like to see a few more Colabombs.

Gonna have a tough decision on who to drop when Beltre comes back

I picked up Colabello when Beltre went down but might have to drop Castellanos now

Who are a few players you would target in a trade if you had

Colabello available? What would be a fair trade for him? I know

its early so its hard to gauge his value but which SP or infielders

would you target for him?

Thanks

He is going to continue to get RBI opportunities if he stays at the cleanup spot.

How could anyone have really sold high on him though? He is the type of guy you ride when he is hot.

How do you sell high on a guy playing way above his head?

You know what I mean. Last year, was anyone buying John Buck? Any random player who has a three week sizzling streak is hard to pawn off for any real value.

I would think you would have to be pretty dumb to buy Chris Colabello for way above sticker price.

Just a minor hiccup on his way to 120 Ribbies.

There is a difference between guys like john Buck, who has a track record, and Cola, who is getting his first real taste on playing time

Out of nowhere guys are intriguing and mysterious

Could you sell high on Aaron harang? frick no

Could you sell high on Colin mchugh? Possibly

Ship may have sailed on Cola. They aren't going to leave him in the middle of the order if he's hitting .150

He wasn't gonna fetch anything great but I would've been offering him for closers or hurt guys like minor or iwakuma.. shite like that

Well, I think he's awake now.

He did hit some balls hard last night. He got robbed once, and the other was right at somebody.
