But that word, as well as "upside" is exactly what's being said about new international signee Ariel Ovando:
"I talk to our guys about a lot of players, and I don't hear 'impact' and this type of upside being thrown around very often. It was a case worth making, and Drayton McLane and Tal were very receptive to us pursuing it."
Ovando will report to the new Dominican facility for the rest of the year, and will begin his pro career in 2011.
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
