Admittedly, I really don't get with the "all hit (and all power at that), no field" type player, but this being said can't get too down on any of these guys. They're better than most/any of us could've ever dreamed to be. They're also human and susceptible to the same doubts, anxieties, downs as any normal person, and think this poor guy just ended up in a rut he could never dig out of. Part of me is happy he'll get a ring and then be able to disappear back into normal life with some nice money and a lot of great memories. Good on anyone that achieves their lifelong dream and makes a living out of it... Sports of whatever.

Most people forget how much talent it takes to be a "shitty" professional athlete.
