Jose Iglesias - psychdoctor - 02-22-2019
Interesting deal if it happens. Iglesias is only 29 years of age and is a defensive gem.

Would you bunt, if I asked you to bunt?
Or would you pout and swing for the stars?
Would you fight, if the team was in a fight?
Would you save our team from this plight?
Would you cry, if we beat the Cards?
Or would you rub it in their face?
Would you be proud, to be a Red?
Our future is in your hands.
You can be our hero, Jose.
You can field away the pain.
You can make us forget about Barry
and bring us a trophy, today.

My bad. I got confused(blaming it on old age). I was thinking Julio Iglasius.

If he and Dietrich both make the team, that might be one of the best infield benches in the league.

I'm nut buying that story.. While I don't question your age, I'm not buying you confused him with "International singing sensation" Iglasius.. lol
Then again you might have..
Something sort of interesting about him was that he was a professional footballer until.....
"His professional football career was ruined when he was involved in a serious automobile accident, due to which he was unable to walk for two years.[7] Afterwards, he said of those years, "I had more courage and attitude than talent." These were sorely tested when he was involved in that car crash—it smashed his lower spine; his legs were permanently weakened as a direct result, and they still required therapy several years later. During his hospitalization after the accident, a nurse named Eladio Magdaleno gave him a guitar so that he could recover the dexterity of his hands.[8] In learning to play, he discovered his musical talent."
That's what I would call catching lightning in a bottle twice..

Yes, that's one of the jobs of a bench player
