Fuld sure is getting the short end of the stick. He deserves a bench spot.

Hoffpauir won;t make it, Fuld or Colvin will, otherwise we have no CF besides Byrd and Fukudome, who are both starters.

Tyler Colvin has indeed lit up spring training, he is probably more of a favorite to make the bench than Hoffpauir....at this point.
