I think Swihart was initiaally an infielder. He wanted to be a catcher, so they made the effort. How long should, could, would hat take? Everybody assumes he stunk as a left fielder, last year. I thought he made some good plays, and was doing far, far, far, bettertthan did Manny (or Td W, for that matter) Then he ran into the wall (they all do eventualy) and everyone assumed i was because he was clumsy. He runs well, he hits well from both side s of the plate. He's a potentilly VG outfielder, who wants o become a catcher. I would guess there is a time limit in place, but that only puts more pressure on him. He will never be a Vazquez, that's for sure. Yes, he may become as good as Veritek was, but how do they wait?
