Davis' remarkable turnaround from a downright concerning pro debut last year continued on Tuesday, as he reached base all four times in his Double-A debut. After hitting .288/.376/.486 at High-A St. Lucie in 59 games, including a .638 slugging percentage in June, Davis is finally looking like the player that earned a first-round selection last June, and the Mets first baseman of the future.

The walks came first
It was a great example of a change in approach completely turning a batter’s season (and in this case, career) around.

Source?
Quotes really need to include a link to the source material so we know (a) who said it, and (b) when/where/etc.

Can we come up with a semi-clever name for the 1st round trio of Holt, Havens, and Davis
I mean, come on already!
I would thinking they could be like, a comic book super hero crew
Or maybe an anime. The Dragon Balls Omir Santos Home Run Balls have been scattered throughout world, shielding the common folk from their mystical powers….

You, Me, and Dupree
Until Davis started doing well, he was slated to be Dupree.
