Just when you think a career is over...
The KC Royals signed Brian Duensing to a minor league deal yesterday. The Royals have had the best bullpen in the league for awhile now so why are they giving the aging Duensing a chance? They have a POWER bullpen. Duensing will be someone different, and left-handed. He actually might make the main roster coming out of spring training.
As to Nick Punto, he's calling it a career after 14 utility seasons. He's best known for filling any spot in the infield that you need and playing it better than the guys he's filling in for. He never hit very well, but he was ALWAYS walking and stealing second (or third). His on-base percentage for someone who hit so poorly was unreal. We'll see if any team hires him as a coach. His baseball I.Q. was always off the charts.
And the teams he played for were always winners. I don't think that was coincidence.
