Juan Centeno

I'm adopting Juan Centeno.
The 23 year old catcher is built like a fireplug, throws out almost 40% of would-be base stealers and has hit for high averages with little power (including AA last year).
I'm not saying he will replace Travis, but I think he will find some power at Las Vegas this year and move up to be a very good major league backup catcher at some point.

He probably left because you've been ignoring him for seven months.

No, I toss all of my adoptees out of the house once they make the majors. Their meal money can buy them better meals than I can provide.

Re: Juan Centeno

You claim an "adoptee", don't post any updates, and then pat yourself on the back when they make the big leagues.

Is that how this is supposed to work?

The difference is I didn't adopt Centeno ex-post-facto.
I predicted he would make the majors, probably as a backup, and I was right.

Re: Juan Centeno

Nice debut, Juan.
Now, out of the house. You're getting meal money now, and it will make room for me to adopt another kid.
