definition of a ballplayer. you should be (as im sure you are) extremely proud
heck, I'm proud of him
very proud of him.
he’s a scrapper. plain and simple.
very fun to watch.
nothing about his game pops out and wows you.
average speed, average arm strength, average range in field, typically above average BA and OBP, but not a lot of power.
not gonna overpower you on the mound, but doesn’t walk many and manages to get a lot of weak grounders and pop ups. And a good pickoff move.
but his grit and determination in games is tough to match.
he’s been passed over for AllStars 4 of the last 6 years because what he brings you doesn’t show up in a 1-2 hour tryout. you gotta see it over the course of a season.
every coach he ever had absolutely love him on their team.
he’s on the field barking out calls before every hitter. Always knows where the right play is.
Smart base runner. If he doesn’t get a great jump he’s not going.
And the kids on his teams seem to respect and look up to him more often than not.
