@MattEddyBA @CarlosACollazo This all day. I don't know why traditional baseball people finally accepted one fairly new age looking stat (albeit 20+ years old?), and it's one that doesn't do its job well.

Hit .260 with 1 HR his Draft year @UIC_Baseball . That's a true scouting success story. And of course, a ton of credit to a kid with great makeup that worked and gutted his way to the big leagues.

They called them ghost runners at East Coast Pro as well.. Tell me you never played wiffle ball with 4-8 people growing up without telling me...

[Céspedes Family BBQ @CespedesBBQ]

Others have said this, but the runner on second in extra innings IS NOT A GHOST RUNNER. A ghost runner is a whole other thing that already exists.

That's a real human on second base, not a ghostly spirit.

@Mike_Ferrin Never let it's speed fall below 50mph.

As recruiting decisions are being made and players are making their college choices, remember to look at the school without your sports goggles on! Of course your sport will be a big part of your college experience but there is much more!! Make your decision for the right reasons
