Agent Questions Trainer
May 1, 2061: Forever Land – on April 10th of this year after a 7 inning outing at Portland, Arturo Meza's record stood at one win against one loss. His ERA was 1.29. The next outing that occurred at Long Beach lasted 48 pitches but registered only 1.1 innings. He allowed four hits one of them a home run, and walked four batters. If you're doing the math that means eight of the 12 hitters that he faced reached base, He got one ground ball and three fly ball outs. Zero strikeouts. The game, on the whole was an unmitigated disaster as the team fell to the surfers by a score of 13 to six.
While this kind of outing is not like him, no one said anything in particular about Meza's physical situation at the time, but now people are wondering. What's the teams trainer sleeping at the switch.
This thought pattern is growing in popularity as fans are digging deeper into the stat lines created by the young right-handed pitcher. Something is clearly wrong, these people think. Fueling the fire is that in the next outing, as the team hosted the Hawaii tropics come on there's a through exactly one pitch before leaving the game with a balky back. That one pitch resulted in a base hit, and the runner eventually scored. Meza was recovered enough to still start in his next outing which was five days later against San Fernando, and outing that did not go well either, but at least was not accompanied by a report of the pictures further injury.
The bottom line result of those 3 outings ballooned misses record to one win against 4 losses. And raised his ERA to 7.08. Fans are buoyed by the idea that Meza’s latest outing was a considerably more successful 5.1 innings at Vancouver allowing only a single run on one home run. But now that the dust has settled questions are being asked, and certain members of the Bikini Krill’s executive office are coming under scrutiny that perhaps they haven't come under before.
The pitcher's agent, Johnny Be Cash, isn't helping anything, either. The representative has been suggesting that perhaps the front office was not protective of his client, and that his back issues actually arose during the Long Beach outing. “I think my client is deserving of some enumeration,” Be Cash said. “You can bet we will be looking for a second opinion to bring to the table.”
Rumors also say cash was seen walking into in underground office of the advanced, experimental research lab somewhere in Sacramento.
For his part Meza is refusing to field questions about his back.
“It's fine,” he said last night. “Let's go win some games.”
