We were joking the Rams might want to take a look at him.

Don't forget the first game against us though that shows his Puig-like agressivness can also backfire. The Reds for whatever reason decide to waste a Phillips at bat to bunt his speed over to third and then he is cocky enough to think he is too fast to be thrown out by a fast groudner to first base and ends up in a rundown and costing them a runner at third. He's a lot of fun to watch but is also going to leave a lot of head scratching.
