Roseboro Seeks Outfield Move To Extend Career
Dodgers catcher John Roseboro, 33, said he wants to switch to outfield or first base to prolong his career by two or three years. In St. Louis with the team, he cited the physical toll of catching and his fast, when asked if he could play the outfield, he answered yes. He has been injured often but misses little time, most recently foot x rays negative after a Wednesday pitch. Dodgers caution about losing a strong catcher behind the plate, as Jeff Torborg backs up the roster. Roseboro earns about 46 thousand dollars this season with one other catcher on the roster, Torborg, signed from Rutgers for near one hundred thousand dollars.
