The long time minor league journeyman finally had his chance in the major leagues and made the most of it. Jimmy Maurer was signed as a replacement for longtime fan favorite, Chris Seitz and made an early claim to the starting position to begin the 2018 campaign. Though Maurer isn’t as spectacular as Jesse Gonzalez in the shot stopping acrobats, Mauer was no slouch either and came up big when called upon.
Stat Breakdown
Maurer started 13 games this season, starting the first 10 games of the season and pushing Gonzalez to up his game before relinquishing starting duties to him.
