Devin Mesoraco went 0 for 4 for the Pensacola Blue Wahoos on Tuesday night. In fact, the 0-fer has become a big commonplace for the 28 year old in Southern League action of late, as it stretched his current streak to 0 for 17 since his 1st inning single against Biloxi back on April 12th.
He’s hitting just .143 with the Cincinnati Reds’ AA club, but he’s obviously not in AA to show he’s a prospect worthy of promotion. He’s in AA on a rehab assignment, there to show a team that invested $28 million in his long-term that he’s healthy enough to be a big league catcher again, and that’s where his 0 for 4 Tuesday evening comes in to play.
