Hey Guys, this site is intended to let you into the life of a minor leaguer and give you the opportunity to ask any questions you might have. Starting the 2008 season I will be posting pictures to show what we do day in and day out. I've been through alot going from high school to college then college to pro ball and wish I could have found a site like this to ask someone questions who has gone through the same thing!
Check out the site often and enjoy the ride through my eyes.
