ST. LOUIS – Asher Wojciechowski sat at his locker inside the visiting clubhouse at Busch Stadium and caught up with a person he hadn’t seen in three years. Two lockers down sat 28-year-old right-hander Deck McGuire, just called up from Double-A.
Wojciechowski and McGuire both were taken by the Toronto Blue Jays in the first round of the 2010 draft. They’d roomed together their first year of pro ball, and in spring training the following year. Life and the constant churn of baseball rosters had separated them, and they’d last seen each other when their respective minor-league teams faced off in 2014.
