I don't know the numbers, but I'd bet he hit .310 over the last half of the season. |
That guy killed us last year. I don't recall him hitting any home runs, but he did get a lot of base hits and hit well with men in scoring position. In all honesty, I didn't realize how good his numbers were until two months ago when I had an opportunity to look at the rosters. |
There are a lot of managers in this league that would love to have a veteran presence in their line-up like Harry, especially when he's coming off one of his most productive seasons. I feel very fortunate to have him back and I'm sure the Winnipeg fans feel the same way. |
We were trying to get him last year at the trade deadline, but the deal fell through. But I never forgot about him. I don't think he was very excited about going back and playing in the (Golden League), so I figured let's get after this guy. |
When you look at Josh's numbers, he's done absolutely everything you can possibly do in the Frontier League. He has the background in independent baseball of a number one starter and I'm thrilled to add him to our roster. |
Whenever you can watch baseball at this time of the year -- whether it's spring training games or the (WBC) -- everybody's hungry for it. |
You just never know what you're getting, but I'm excited about Jon. He hit the ball hard last year, he just didn't find the right spots. |
