Hobie, the disease causes widespread irritation but is rarely fatal!!
Great to see Mazeika, whose name I now properly spell (I think) getting promoted - he struggled a bit with the bat for a while and is moving on to cooler environs, which should help a catcher.
To add to the last point, I went to a minor league night game in the summer in Ft Myers a few years ago - it was hot and oppressive. Catching in that, night in, night out, could really wear a catcher out, and be the reason for Mazeika's slippage. Nido won the batting title last year when he played for St Lucie, but he barely had enough at bats to qualify, as I recall.
Maz & Kacz show in Bingo (T.Brennan disease is catching :-) )

ReplyDeleteThe obvious would be Nido to Vegas and Plawecki to Queens wit R. Rivera traded...
Do we do obvious things?
