I am unsurprised to see this post. While I am addicted to paradigm change, nothing I’ve seen of Maicer leads me to believe he’s scrappy. He needs a shade more effort there and then we can talk about maybe that scrap tag. However at 100% health I have no doubts thus far about his ‘natural ability’. If his current output dropped 20% based on his current health dropping 20% (I know, its not that clear cut, but hey, it’s paradigm change so I’m extemporizing for the sake of argument) then he’d still be very productive. Show a bit more scrap there Maicer.

Has anybody checked his visa status lately?

That quote about playing at 100% sounds ambiguous to me. Are you sure he’s referring to his level of health when he plays or how hard he plays the game? In other words, could he be saying that he could play 140 games a year if he played at an 80% or 90% effort level which would reduced injuries as opposed to 100% effort level?
