2007

A left-handed hitter with a .425 OBP in Double-A would normally get your attention, but Mat Tupman has no power, is slower than the Middle East peace process, and he`s already turned 27. The lefty bat will likely keep him stashed away in Triple-A as a team`s emergency catcher for a long time to come.
