[edit] Biographical Information
Catcher Tim Federowicz attended the University of North Carolina, where he hit 12 home runs as a freshman. After hitting .308 as a junior, he was selected by the Boston Red Sox in the 2008 amateur draft. He was signed by scout Quincy Boyd and made his pro debut that summer with the Lowell Spinners.
Federowicz was traded twice in one day on July 31, 2011. First, he was one of four Red Sox prospects, along with Chih-Hsien Chiang, Stephen Fife and Juan Rodriguez sent to the Seattle Mariners for Ps Erik Bedard and Joshua Fields, then was immediately flipped to the Los Angeles Dodgers, along with Fife and Rodriguez, for Trayvon Robinson. Within two months, he was a September callup for L.A., and he struck out in his first big league at-bat, facing the San Francisco Giants on September 11th.
