Scorched earth
Do it. Big Leaguers come from everywhere! If you do that really challenge yourself. Practice for where you want to be not where you are. Make friends with the best pitcher on the team and don't quit until you own him.
Point taken but please all of you shut the fuck up.
Played a little club ball after that. Couple big league tryouts. Those were fun but nobody was really that interested. There was a brief second when I thought Tampa Bay mightve been interested but they ghosted me.
I was thinking with your measurables you should soak up as much Josh Donaldson as you can. He was undersized when he was younger and just decided to forgo the getting huge part in favor of learning to hit the ball to the moon.
Well keep giving it everything. I didn't and I regret it. Watched many people I played along side make it. Some I felt I was better than! Friend I grew up with (Blaine Boyer) was like the oldest player in the AL last year lol. So needless to say I'm considerably past my prime. I could still hit his flat ass fastball a mile though I just know it 😉. Do you have any reel of yourself? It isn't necessary but it helps...
Nobody mentions that OP qualifies mass shootings as reasonable in these times. No FBI at his door I'm sure.
Not enough to be honest. First of all I was a "preferred walk-on" for Coach Polk who left in the middle of the night for his beloved Mississippi State. Within a week or so the new coach David Perno had me and two others in his office and basically told us he would not be able to honor Coach Polk's promises and that we would have to earn it like the rest of the walk-ons. Situation got worse with him when I red flagged one of my physicals with a heart palpitation on my ekg. I called him to tell him I was temporarily medically restricted and he lost his shit on me. Couldn't believe I "didn't have the respect to come tell him in person." I actually thought I was being respectful considering he had just taken the job and was surely busy. Few weeks later he cut me and that was that. I'm sure he would've liked me to come grovel and find out how I could get better etc and maybe in retrospect I should've but I was young and prideful. Quite frankly I didn't like the guy and come to find out later nobody did. I remained friends with most of the younger players on the team throughout college.
Politics aside I was a switch hitting SS. Came in between two major leaguers (Jeff Keppinger and Gordon Beckham). My first day out there for optionals "Kep"(who had just been drafted) was out on the field taking bp with wood. That is the moment I realized the enormous difference between good ball players and big leaguers. He was smaller than me and was just effortlessly stroking 440ft bombs. Foley Fields dimensions are big and really only one or two right handed mashers would hit bombs in bp. That was with metal obviously.
What pos are you? Had any pro interest?
Tasting the red one.
Yes but I feel that if it were a false flag then they would've certainly chosen a white guy. Point taken though.
You're not wrong. Their would be better ways to do that.
Exactly what a Democrat would say.
I own a business and I utilize a recruiter that uses Indeed. She will no longer be using them.
"we will not be silent" as if anyone is trying to silence them.
Sure man. Fire away.
That sucks. I walked on at UGA in 2003. I was thinking of how rough it would be on non scholarship players now.
Where do you play ball Matt?
Anybody got a replay link?
This is the most Reddit-like comment thread I've ever seen on this site.
You are so wrong.
Nah. Something about people actually witnessing death would trigger survival. Since there isn't anything to be afraid of this time around, people aren't afraid.
Shenanigans were happening months before November.
Hello there hotter Wednesday Addams. We have the best women don't we folks?
So we are just balls deep in Fox News and Twitter again...
