Tagg "K" Bozied

Has anyone seen any of the Memphis games. I was really hoping to see a lot more productivity out of Tagg. If I remember right he had a pretty good spring didn't he? This striking out 17 times in 37 AB's isn't going to cut it for long. I wasn't sure if something was wrong with him or what, but any info would be greatly appreciated.

That sucks

I liked him, and he was great this spring. Very disappointing.

Tagg

he played here in Portland (AAA-Padres) a few years back... was pretty much the same type of hitter. had good power but swung at a lot of pitches it seemed. he's best known for this.

"The Padres released Triple-A first baseman Tagg Bozied, who was one of their top power-hitting prospects before he ruptured a knee tendon while celebrating a walk-off grand slam for Portland on July 19, 2004. The Padres signed Bozied for about $700,000 after drafting him in 2001; the Padres since haven't drafted an amateur whose legal adviser was agent Scott Boras. Padres chairman John Moores has said that amateurs advised by Boras aren't a great bet for success. "
