Better (late than never) Know a Miller: Luke Mahler
Name: Luke Mahler
Number: 8
School: Minnehaha Academy
Primary positions: 1B, P
Don't let Luke's calm and pleasant demeanor fool you. If 12AA Orange has a diva, it's Luke, for no other reason than he refuses to slide or get HBP. Luke pitched quite a bit for us, even on days he had a fresh manicure. He was very effective in the leadoff spot, and also at tripping baserunners at 1B who annoyed him.
2012 season high point: Went yard at Cooperstown.
2012 season low point: Nearly forgot to touch 3rd base on his Homerun trot.
Weird habit worth mentioning: For much of the year, flat-out refused to slide. Diva. Also, throws L and bats R, which, according to many German baseball coaches, is a sign of serious genetic inferiority, which can only be addressed through extermination.
Most likely to get kicked out of Cooperstown Dreams Park for: What would a diva do? What would Celine Dion do? Let's go with trashing the CDP breakfast buffet because the gruel is not imported, free-range gruel.
