About Garret »

Hello. My name is Garret Traggorth. I'm 13 years old. I was born in Waldorf, Maryland, yet I still have lived in Utah, Georgia, and now where i call home is Grand Junction, Colorado. Although I'm a big baseball fan, I'm mostly just a sports fan. My favorite teams are the Braves and the Orioles but my favorite between the two is the Braves. That's about it. Oh, and one more thing. GO BRAVOS!!!

If you leave an article link on my page you will get a read and a comment.

A thought that I must put out there:
Jair Jurrjens is the best Young pitcher in the game not named Lincecum, Hernandez, or Grienke

Hey Garret,

I'm writing articles on the MLB 9s and thought you'd be interested in the Atlanta Braves' piece.

Let me know what you think.

Cheers,

Hey, this is a article that I'm particularly proud of, and I think you will enjoy it. It looks at some of the strangest injuries to ever occur in baseball history, there certainly are some strange ones.

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/242705-five-strangest-injuries-in-baseball-history

As always any feedback/support would be appreciate, and would like to get this article around BR, so if you could tell a friend who might tell a friend. Then that would be really appreciated.

Thanks in advance
