Sad to see, Fritsche has all the talent in the world but injuries will always be his major downfall.

This kid just can't buy a break. Sad to say that this shoulder problem will cause him to retire sooner rather than later. Shame too because there is nothing about this kid that you wouldn't like. He loves the game.
