C-Notes 2048.07 - Klooster Down, Scheffer In
On August 16th, during the top of the 2nd inning in a game against the New Orleans Crawdads, Charlotte Cougars All Star Catcher Roelof Klooster sprained an ankle trying to let out a double. Charlotte doctors anticipate the sprain will not be healed for 7-8 weeks. This was bad news to the Cougars Front Office as it meant Klooster would not be available for the playoff push nor the Geoghegan Round, should the Cougars make it that far.
Klooster, the Captain of the Cougars, has been having another outstanding year. So far this season, Klooster has been batting .314/.389/.490 with 34 doubles and 9 homeruns.
The Cougars Front Office immediately went to work on finding another catcher. One of its first calls was to Edmonton where they found a willing trade partner. Charlotte brought in Catcher Rainer Scheffer to try and fill the shoes of Klooster for the rest of the season. So far this season, Scheffer is batting .292/.347/.421 with 24 doubles and 8 homeruns. Going the other way in the deal were minor league Pitchers Javier Morales and Davis Novak.
GM Golden had this to say about the deal - "Look, Roelof is the best catcher in the game right now. That's hard to replace. We've got faith in Scheff right now though and he must love the warmer weather down here in Charlotte; in 5 games with us he's currently hitting .500/.522/.636! We cant expect him to keep that pace up but we'll take it that's for sure."

Scheffer was clearly pleased to get the hell outta Edmonton!

So far. We'll have to see how long it lasts. I'll take 60% of the output I'm getting from him now.

He even had an extra-inning walk-off hit in his second game.

Yeah, I knew he could be a problem. I have a very strong leadership group though and we are winning so things are good for now.
