Brett Nicholas:

Brett is having himself a pretty good season in his first year as primarily a catcher. Brett is hitting .244/330/.346 with 3 home runs and 17 RBI. I thought that Brett might be the one who got called up when J.P. got sent down to Round Rock, but the Texas Rangers went with Gimenez instead. Brett is just waiting his time, and he will get his opportunity. Nicholas can also play some first base, so there is that as well.
