Maldonado is lethal defensively.

Injuries weed out a huge percentage of would-be athletes when they’re young. It must be very frustrating to make it all the way to the majors and then not be able to stay healthy.

I hope not, anyway.

“Too late” is getting later and later in this day and age – there’s amazing new legal stuff to help top level athletes, and I wish him all the best. He’s too young and too talented to quit.

1. Sign Carlos Lee
2. Have Hunter Mooris start the season as your starter with Gonzalez backing him up till Heart comes back.

He’ll follow in the proud Brooze tradition of gimpy-kneed first basemen, but more importantly, his inability to hit or drive in runs will not be compromised by his injury.

THe other reason I’m not crazy about it is because in this instance may very well prove to be incorrect. He has not actuallly done enough to be evaluated, unless it’s the mere fact of aging a couple years -(Significant but not decisive)
