If his conversion to pitcher with the Braves is successful, it would be awesome to see another Niekro(Lance) floating knuckleballs in the big leagues.

With uncle Phil personally tutoring him, I wouldn't be surprised at all to see him eventually make it.

Given that he wasn't even as good a hitter as his dad, this doesn't surprise me.
