Thanks. I ran into him season before last @ the Fort, and he said he was retiring. I know his shoulder was giving him lots of trouble 'bout that time, and assume he just wasn't up to the level HE wanted to be at to be out there. I agree. Dos is such a top level natural skill and intellect, his game, if he could find his fitness back to 100%, is so crafty and consistent, could find him vieing(sp) as a top 3-5 backcourter imo, the euro guys wanting him for summer partido season. ymmv
Crazy- considering his diminutive size, his catching and ball placement is so good and again consistent, overwhelming those of greater power.

Dos (when we 1st found him) reminds me of a young Ozzie Guillen in Vegas (Stars). Ozzie at 17 did things @ Short, that I'd never witnessed guys being able to perform. I spent a small amount of time i the minors myself and was totally blown away by what he could do-- Dos has those same attributes. just a guys opinion-
