Reply to "D2 Undrafted"

The best hitter on my son’s travel team the year behind him had the sweetest swing on the team. He became a D2 All American. He didn’t even get a sniff from MLB.

He was a 5’10” first baseman. He couldn’t run. He couldn’t throw. MLB doesn’t sign players on the hope they pan out as a DH. DH is a fall back position. DH is a floor potential, not ceiling potential.

The kid was also dumber than a tree stump. He made an ignorant, controversial Tweet that got him national exposure. He may have been right to a point. But, it’s better to remain quiet and thought stupid than Tweet, embarrass yourself nationally and remove all doubt.
