I live in a well-known youth baseball 'capital' so you'll run into ex-MLB (not minors) baseball players all the time.
I was talking to one on my son's team.
I asked him --- "So what does it take to make it to D1 baseball."
He replied (having played at Stanford) --- "Talent, great coaching, grinding it out."
I asked him --- "What does it then take to make it to the Majors?"
"Genetics."
@ManAndTimmy971 Mis amigos, I think Timmy came across a Neil Armstrong mural, since he went to the moon and he is from Wapakoneta and the museum up that way is for him.
@ManAndTimmy971@TimmyHallRadio I had a college roommate that would let pizza sit out all night and then eat it the next day. I’m surprised he made it through the school year

@Buccigross How is Kevyn Adams viewed in the league? Seems he got a bit unlucky with the timing, but change at the top can motivate players as well. Can see the argument either way.
