I am so happy for Joe and his family who have supported him so well in all his endeavors. Great things happen when people have passion about the game of baseball. Because of Joe's family's continued support no goal is too high. I look forward to hitting with Joe once again in the Off season.

Congrats to Joe and his start with the Gulf Coast Twins.

Long way from short season ball to the Show.

Just ask Aaron Capista.
