| Posted Feb 1/10 - Slavitsky And Shorebirds Make A Deal |
After a very long season off due to suspension for Zack Slavitsky, he has found his way back into the league and on a promising team. After the lose of Adam Dischert the Shorebirds needed a player. But did the Shorebirds really gain anything better from this? Many would say yes over the historty and stories that Zack Slavitsky's name holds. Lets be honest, Slavitsky is not the same player. He was off for 1 whole season and now has a bad shoulder injury to his pitching arm. There also has been an increase in the compitition in the past years. Teams like the Threshers, Thunder, Mudcats, and the Swamp Dragons all look to do damage. And all are capable of it too. It seems as Slavitsky is playing his second rookie season. He has to establish himself yet again and overcome an injury which will hang on him through the year and battle new faces in the league that are much better than the 07 and 08 season. However; opening day is getting closer and the important thing is that the Shorebirds have filled their roster slot. They may not be as strong as last season and Slavitsky may not be the player he used to be, but they are going to have to find out what it is like to play together. Romani said "I feel very good about this move. Sure he is rusty, I dont expect 30 jacks this season or do i expect a long term deal. I just wanted a good player that is a threat to pitchers minds and can give me and the team some relief." Also Romani mentioned that he is very happy that he is back in the game and hope that he stays for along time. |
