re: Milazzo should have been playing all along

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.
