Confident he'll be a pretty good ball player. He typically does well his second time around at every stop he makes. He works with Jason Giambi, Troy Tulowitzki, among others during the off season. The kid is going to strike out a lot... that's pretty much a given. At the same time, he'll be a pretty good player because he wants and works hard for it. I mean even if he has a Russell Branyan type career, it that really a bad thing? He played 14 years in the majors. He'll be better than that though.

It is if you are counting on a player to be a cornerstone/building block of the franchise

Compared to the people posting in this thread, no.
But Branyan played in more than 116 games just once in his career. So hopefully Gallo's career mirrors Branyan's 162 game average and not his actual career, which I think will probably happen.
