I want to thank Josh Donaldson for his 20 million dollar hit there.

Note to self:

Do not sign mid-30's slugger with calf injury history to $100-million deal.

Hey Cam question for you. I don't know what type of ball player you were. Let's say in your prime.

Drew Butera was 6-138 one year with the twins at one point to start off a year.

If you got all the bp like he got and same coaching instruction in your prime do you think you get 6 hits. You face the same pitchers so not Verlander every night and you don't have to worry about defense just hitting.

Cause I think I could've done it we're having argument at the bar right now about it.

I had D-II interest at Florida Southern before getting injured my senior year. That's where my baseball career died. And yes, I would do much better than 6-138. I could probably use half of those AB's bunting and get more than six hits.

Very cool I was pitcher. I played at Doane college which was NAIA powerhouse in Nebraska then played at Augsburg.

The best school to recruit me was Minnesota state but there pitching coach said I would redshirt and I wouldn't be a option till my senior year.

Best story I have is I pitched in front the notes dame pitching coach at tpx. I'm 6'2 225 back then :) lol but I have what you call a roger Clemens ass. I got up there hit my 82-84 on the gun.

He throws his hat says god damn it son I thought I found my ace for the next 4 years with that ass and build and then you threw 82 with perfect mechanics lol. I said I'm sorry sir he said you'll make a D-2 very happy someday.

Bahaha that's fantastic. Should have told him you were just featuring your changeup for the scouts. Saving the cheddar for game day.
