Post #1

I first heard about the idea of having a blog through a good friend that I met playing baseball this summer, Jeff Bercume. I played with Jeff on the Vancouver Canadians this past summer, and he told me about how he writes a blog that talks about his baseball journey and all of the baseball knowledge that he has learned on the way. You can access Jeff's blogs at the following site: http://108stitchez.com/


I am from Torrington, CT and I am a recent graduate of James Madison University. While attending JMU, I played four years of college baseball and was selected as the 1145 pick (38th round) of the 2010 MLB Draft in June. I played my first professional season this past summer in the beautiful city of Vancouver, Canada. I am currently in my first off-season as a professional baseball player.


I am starting this blog to keep my friends and family updated on my baseball career and the journey that it has been and is sure to be in the future. This is also for baseball fans of all ages who are interested in the life of a minor leaguer, a college baseball player and the steps that I took to reach these levels. I will be covering a wide variety of topics that will interest fans, players, parents, kids, and coaches so be sure to tell your family and friends to check it out. Thanks.
