| Too bad whenever Tim gets called up, Gordon will only be the second best Beckham in the MLB.

Tim Beckham has great potential but he still has a long way to go. | Tim Beckham didn't even look that good in Appy League ball.
It's going to take some serious work from Timmy to be getting PT over Jason Bartlett within 2 years. | |
