Putz puts off Schmuck on name fame
Here is an amusing item today from my former Tribune teammate at the Baltimore Sun, Peter Schmuck, regarding his peculiar kinship - or maybe not - with the Mariners' J.J. Putz.
Putz comes off like kind of a, um . . . Oh, never mind. Maybe Schmuck should instead bond with the Blue Jays' Kevin Mench.
Just a thought.

Schmuck can try talking to Royals coach Rusty Kuntz or Reds pitching coach Dick Pole.
The Mariners also had a minor league prospect (not too long ago) named Jaime Bubela. They should get all of these guys together to play in the Israeli Baseball league.
