Congrats Drew Sutton!

FungoHighly Regarded and Beloved Old Timer

I've been telling everyone about Drew Sutton for about 10 years now and about how he would stand in my basement would wear me out soft tossing bucket of balls to him. Drew had no D-1 offers out of high school. Went Juco and then on to Baylor and then to the minors and now he's impressing MLB. This is his second call up as a replacement with the Cincinnati Reds. Last night many of you witnessed first hand what I've been saying for years.

That is an awesome outcome, and really inspirational. Thank you for sharing this with us.

Fungo - I am the biggest Drew Sutton fan in the world because of your stories about him. Highly inspirational to a lower round draft choice like my son. Like you said, "The only one who believed in Drew was Drew!"

Great stuff
