Memphis Versatile Star Veverka Ponders Major League Fate
Memphis pitcher and first baseman Prapk Veverka, a 28 year old southpaw for the Memphis Chicks, thrives on versatility but laments it may keep him from concentrating on pitching. Last season he won 20 games with a 13 loss record for a second division club and now wonders if majors will overlook him due to his multiple roles. He credits manager Doc Proshire for the team’s base stealing and notes his timely pinch hitting. he also plays first base and fills gaps as needed. Veverka says he would quit to settle down if big league opportunities vanish, but he enjoys daily play and hopes to prove himself this season.
