You're just noticing now? Chas, Meyers, Tucker, Alvarez and now Loperfido. Chas and Meyers are really an exception to the rule even more, throws left and bats right. That's about as rare an occurrence as you'll see in baseball. I think the number of major leaguers that can say that are less than 60 in history. We have 2 on the same team, certain that's an MLB first.
Hunter Brown deserves an apology! (New favorite Astro…. And has vaulted to highest ceiling young Astros pitcher over Garcia).
The Astros apparently have a history of the rare one…. Jason Lane was also the same (bats right, throws left).
