ORU moves along to the next dance. What Ryan Folmar Ryan Neill, Wes Davis and Jimmy Turk have done w/ this team is amazing. Some of the best people and coaches I’ve been around. They let players play and they get better w/ these coaches. Scout friendly is w/ out question. 🦅

Dear Baseball,

THANK YOU!

This mans name is “J” Harrison. This man saved my life. He is the scout who drafted me in the 46th Rd out of high school. I remember sitting in my fathers living room as “J” told me I wasn’t ready. My mom had just died, legal issues & the Military calling & no school options. Was I really gonna turn down money to play baseball? I HAD to. He knew that.

“J” put me on the doorstep of Kevin Higgins at ARC JUCO & the rest is history. He didn’t care about me playing minor league baseball. He wanted me to survive. I just saw “J” in my hometown of Stockton Ca. I’m gonna get to go watch baseball with the scout who drafted me 20+ years ago in my hometown.

Thank you baseball.

Sincerely,
Me.

1/ A concerning trend in youth sports is how often the youngest kids are compared to their peers. This is an issue among programs monetizing sports participation, coaches responsible for identifying/developing proficiency, and parents concerned that their kids are falling behind.

The New York Yankees mourn the loss of Kelly Rodman, a trusted scout and treasured member of this organization. Kelly was a huge part of our amateur scouting department & represented the Yankees with dignity and class while earning the admiration of countless people in the game.

[Tim Alexander @Talex10]

Today we lost one of the greatest people any of us have ever known, Kelly Rodman. A true team player whose love for the game of baseball and passion for the Yankees was beyond measure. Here’s to a life well lived and a legacy that will never die. #foreverAYankee
