He has a cult following of many many pro players.
You got to be a little crazy to play this game.

Dude probably needs to get a sponsorship from Fabreeze...that van cannot smell good. Cool story though, good for him. #GRIND
Forget the MiLB salary. He was part of the David Price trade. He's scheduled to start for the Tigers on Sunday.
He received a $2MM signing bonus. He does not NEED to live like this, it is his choice.
Nice read.
"...got baptized in his baseball uniform." Love it.
Thanks for sharing.

Well I laughed pretty hard the first time I saw the skit on SNL....that and "DA BEARS!"...pretty funny stuff!
As for the pitcher living in a van, more power to him, I'm sure MANY people at the park talked about it/him from day one of his arrival.
