Position switch: noticed in Sunday's box score that Carlos Leal (MiLB page), the Brewers 34th round pick out of Delta State (MS) last June, was behind the plate. Leal saw limited action last summer in Maryvale as a RH reliever. But this is nothing new for Leal - from draft time last year via The Bolivar (MS) Commercial "Leal (a LH bat), who played catcher at DSU for two seasons, finished up 2014 with a home run, 37 RBIs, 56 hits and a .359 batting average in 46 games. Leal threw out 12 of 42 base runners trying to steal and committed just five errors with a .980 fielding percentage. In 2013, Leal hit .310 with a home run and 27 RBIs in 45 games. Leal was drafted as a pitcher, because of his strong throwing arm. Leal played his first two seasons of college ball at East Central Community College and drafted in the 33rd round of the MLB draft by the Pittsburgh Pirates in 2012 as a catcher. “A lot of people had interest in him,” Delta State head baseball coach Mike Kinnison said about Leal. “I knew it would be late rounds, but I’m excited he got an opportunity. He had two great years for us. He was one of those hard workers you really appreciate as a coach. He has a great attitude and for him to get an opportunity is a dream come true for him.” *** Leal turns 24 this July.
