After 12+ years of pro baseball I am officially retired! From living out my dream in the MLB, to Japan, Korea, Mexico and everywhere in between - it has been an incredible ride. I gave baseball everything I had, and it gave me even more. I could go on and on, but really I'm just grateful. For the life lessons, relationships, memories and much more.
Baseball led me to my beautiful wife, our amazing kids, and this life we have built. That is what I am most grateful for.
Thank you baseball - you were everything this kid dreamed of.
And thank you to @Ayers4President for making this video just because he's a great friend. I don't know when I would have posted something if he didn't. You're the best dude ππ»
Nick Castellanos on Steven Souza Jr.: "He has all of the right information. He goes above and beyond to give it to all of us. And now it's on us, how we take that information ... I don't like when hitting coaches get a lot of blame. Hitting is the hardest thing to do in sports."
