Disher spent most of his time in 2009 at 1B, where he committed five errors for a .984 Fld%.

If you followed Tri-City in 2008, this probably wasn't the Phil Disher you were expecting to see. Disher enjoyed a first-year pro campaign in which he posted a .916 OPS, with 13 HR and 56 RBI in 71 games at Tri-City. So for this to happen, there has to be something else going on, right? Well, yep. Disher had surgery on bad hip, and didn't play after May 25. He was playing the instructional league back in October, so we'll hold off judgment.
