Travis Snider hit two homers on Thursday just a few minutes after GM Alex Anthopoulos said he wasn't ready to give him a spot on the big league roster just yet.

?That was great. I like the way he was getting around on the fastball,? Cito Gaston said. ?Today, I don?t think that was a struggle.?

He was asked if there?s any way that Snider doesn?t make the club.

?I don?t think so,? he said. ?He?s a front-runner for us. He?s part of our future.

?Why wouldn?t we want him to make this club??
