We're hoping to see a little more consistency. Hopefully, the breaking ball will continue to get better. But his command and consistency are something we'd like to see improve.

I don't know about that, yet. We'll see how he comes along. [Tuesday] is going to be his first game competing, and we can get him in a controlled environment, watch him and protect him, and make sure he's coming along as we hope.

Gavin sometimes thinks too much about mechanics. He's naturally talented and sometimes thinks about where all the pieces are instead of being aggressive.

We'd like to see him more aggressive attacking the strike zone and being committed to what he's doing. He had a lot of deep counts and a lot of misses off the plate. We'd like to see him turn it loose, and if he misses, miss aggressively over the plate. It's his approach and attitude. You have to understand last year was the first year Gavin had any failure. He has to get his mind straight and be aggressive.

He was collapsing his backside a little. It's something he has had to deal with before, and he threw some fastballs that had a good angle, so I'm not too concerned.

He's in a battle with everybody and the inventory we have. Geoff made some big strides. He pitched down a lot better and came up with a sinking fastball and a slider to go along with that. The improvement of being under control and confident is the biggest thing.
