Kash Beauchamp on Bernie: Bernie Dennis is a guy that I’ve seen in the past do everything solid. He can hit, he can catch, and he can throw. If something happened to our number one guy, I wouldn’t lose any sleep having Bernie in the lineup. He’s a very good guy who’s going to come in with a good attitude, accept his role, and really fit in.
