The facts are he has been a much harder out than milazzo, is much much much younger than Milazzo, yet has zero grace, for whatever weird reason. Neither have been good defensively (none of the catchers have)

No the facts are Milazzo has more hits in SEC play in less than half the ABs. Neal has shown he can’t hit SEC pitching and while Milazzo is not the defensive wizard people on here think he is for some reason, he’s better back there than Neal too. This team can’t afford to have such a weak defensive catcher that isn’t making up for it with his bat in the slightest bit

And if this was still March when Neal wasn’t contributing at all in SEC play, you would have a stronger point. He struggled, so they started giving Milazzo more ABs. The result? Milazzo started struggling at the plate in April while Neal started hitting better. Milazzo was the key to the victory last night, but it was his first good SEC game in awhile. Yet somehow, everyone wants to judge both players on March instead of April. They need to play both until one or the other starts producing consistently or failing to produce consistently.
