Yes, Matt Tuiasosopo, the baseball player. Got it? Good.
A third-round pick way back in the 2004 draft, Tuiasosopo has been developing slowly but steadily in the Mariner system. In his first season with the affiliated West Tennessee Diamond Jaxx (AA), Matt the Batt produced a respectable .774 OPS while slugging .404. His strikeout rate remains high, though (113 in 550 PAs), which will prevent him from moving up very quickly. Still, he's on the radar in a newly-deep Seattle system, and he should get a shot at the big club sometime in 2010 or 2011.
