Chacon and Small filled some gaps for us, ... And they didn't only fill them, they did some quality stuff. We've been very lucky with that.
By rule, the decision to reverse a call by use of instant replay is at the sole discretion of the crew chief.
Hopefully it's true. He tries to never have a negative thought. But last year, I even admitted, I was surprised to see the power numbers come back the way they did that quickly.
He's very intelligent, not pretty intelligent. So I think he was poised to make a decision.
I'm comfortable with the way he's swinging the bat. We might as well take advantage of it while we have three catchers. It would be a little tougher to do if we only had two.

He's still young. Let's not get too impatient with him.
