Other stuff as I think of things. One is that Theo had high praise for Contreras and Castellanos. He also mentioned again that some players had made adjustments they were asked to at the plate (though he did not give names, he presumably was referring to Happ and Schwarber).

He specifically acknowledged leadoff and CF as areas in special need of improvement, aling with 2B. Said he would love to have a prototypical leadoff guy, but said the options there are very limited. He stressed his philosophy of  trying to fill up the lineup with high on base hitters
