I am not accusing. Just asking.

For the MiLB games, I think I worked 2 plates and 4 bases.
Nope, I have always worked about half and half. If given a choice, I would always rather do the plate. The way my back has gotten, the bases are harder than the plate. And no, to answer your next question...I do not loaf in my coverages. I may not be as fast as I once was but, I have never missed a coverage because of my body. I have missed plenty over the years because I screwed up...never because of a physical reason.
I have gone on hiatus because of the pain, not the lack of movement. It looks like back surgery is inevitable.
