It’s so cool that you can make that post knowing that your son is going to spring training and will be on a big league roster. I can only imagine how much fun you (and your son) are having. Both of you are literally living the dream. And I hope it goes on for a long time. It’s not everyone’s dream, but for the members of HSBBW it is. As a Dad, this must be just awesome. I’m really happy for you.

Thank you for the kind words.

Like most parents on this site, I had a kid with an aptitude for this game. And like most kids with a talent and a love of the game, his biggest and most unrealistic life goal was to be an MLB player. As a parent, it's surreal and humbling to have a kid that realized his biggest childhood dream.

He's blessed for the opportunity, and I'm still blessed to be a baseball dad.
