What is the deal with ALEX RIOS?

[OToddWalker]

I picked him up a week ago and hes been swell- what is his ceiling stat-wise (this year and next), what are the chances he get teh full time job?

[OToddWalker]

no one knows his status?

[sportsguy138]

hinskes still gonna get some starts.. but after this month itll pretty much be rios.. as he has obviously won the job

[OToddWalker]

what are they saying in toronto? is he expected to sustain this output?

[x_Momentum]

alex rios is doing amazingly well. he`s definitely a keep in the toronto lineup

what are they saying in toronto? is he expected to sustain this output?

A .400 average and a 1.257 OPS?

No, he definitely won't keep that up, but judging by his new look swing I think he has a chance to be a 25 HR, .300 AVG, 15 SB, .900 OPS guy. He'd have to win the job from Hinske though, for that to happen.

Yea, he's definatley doing his best to win the job on an every day basis, but he still is getting days off when the matchup isn't in his favor. For a waiver or late pick in most leagues you can't complain about his production so far.

thanks

THe question is, is this a breakout season, or is he just having a good first month? He's at the age where breakouts happen, but who knows... If you've got enuf spots, it's worth it to pick him up, but if I had to bet, he's just on a streak.

He should have a breakout season. You know, he's at that stage, age wise.

TOR has a formidable lineup. EHinske shouldn't pose a serious threat to ARios.

He's a 5 tool player right? Just like VWells.
