Sullivan in line for OF5

Cory Sullivan is in line for the OF5 spot, so it would suggest from his team-high in ABs. Oh, and the love being showered upon him by Ed Wade, who stopped short of calling out his jock size:

Wade:
Cory's done a nice job.He's done exactly what we thought he was capable of doing when we signed him. He's a multiple-position, left-handed-hitting outfielder, and that profiles very well for us. We're not at the point of anointing anybody right now, but Cory's put his best foot forward and that's exactly what we knew he was capable of doing."

Sullivan:
"There's always competition, but I try and use [the] spring to get ready for April 5," he said. "I know my skill set and they know my skill set. They've seen me do it before, but the idea is not to peak in April. You want to build through Spring Training and be ready April 5, and that's kind of how I approach it."

And he's had plenty of Kool-Aid:
"There's always competition, but I try and use [the] spring to get ready for April 5. I know my skill set and they know my skill set. They've seen me do it before, but the idea is not to peak in April. You want to build through Spring Training and be ready April 5, and that's kind of how I approach it."
