Following Parra's lead (or, now that McGehee has made the team)...

According to the roster on the Brewers' website, Casey McGehee will now be wearing #14. No more #52 for him.

Shouldn't that number be retired?

 

Anyway, the last backup 3B to wear that number fared well.

So, he follows up on the Sabathia and Branyan numbers. Let's hope that some of the double-legend rubs off on Casey while he is a Brewer.

When I think of #52, I still have lasting visions of Josias Manzanillo.

That's three players to wear #14 in the last two years (Gross, Branyan and now McGehee.)

Better that than Jose Capellan. Maybe.

Little known fact: Robin19 sports a #14 jersey to the ballpark sometimes. I've got Dave Nelson's (Brewers #14) autograph on it. Someday I hope to add Gross, Branyan, and Felipe Alou (Brewers #14). I might add McGehee to that list.

Speaking of Dave Nelson (kind of), was #14 a number ever worn by Dave Nilsson? I'm remembering #13, #11, and finally #7. Maybe it's just a numerical proximity thing.

 

It'd be a real coup if you could get Dion James and Jim Paciorek to autograph that jersey, too.

Edit: How can I forget my favorite underdog of the late '80s and another #14, Jim Adduci!
