Lastings will never come across like David Wright. They are different players with different upbringings. I don’t think LM has a lot to learn at AAA at this point, and it’s just a matter of a spot opening up for him and he’ll be up to stay. Hopefully he’ll back up his youthful confidence with his performance on the field. I can live with that...and I don't really want to beat up on LM. In the end, I don't think he'll learn any more at AAA either, but IMO it would be better for him to play everyday than sit on the bench at any level. And hey, if he goes on a tear and is helping the team, I would love for him to be in NY.
