Life of a journeyman: Brewers catcher Erik Kratz finally has playoff shot

 

If you didn’t love this guy before, read this. If he’s done after the season, it’d be great to get this guy on staff.

"This is a very simple game. You throw the ball, you catch the ball, you hit the ball. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains." Think about that for a while.

I'm always amazed at guys that toil in the minors for years without getting an opportunity. On the one hand, before 30, it has to be the best job you will ever have. At the same time, getting passed by younger guys and becoming a veteran minor leaguer that no organization is really pushing you has to be hard to take. Signing each year with a team that might offer a shot if things go badly (injuries). Add in that you can be traded in a minute and have to uproot your family...wow!

 

I hope Kratz gets to enjoy a nice postseason run and can make some spectacular memories by getting a key hit or a phenomenal tag out at the plate.
