In the last seven games, Scutaro is hitting .429, with 4 doubles and 6 RBIs. His OBP is a robust .478, with an OPS of 1.097—only Josh Reddick is hotter over the last week (.444/.500/1.278). Scutaro seems to finally be in the kind of groove that attracted Theo's attention during his one year north of the border. A steady, run-producing shortstop would be a huge boost for a team that, on some nights, needs a counter-intuitive candidate to power the offense.
