  1. This is the story of a ball player who beat the odds. Its a true heartwarmer, and I'd love to hear what you think.

  2. Thanks for the kind words. Although that was my best work, I'd love to your feedback on my other recent pieces.

  3. Very nice work Fitzy. One thing to add maybe is put all your final rankings in a public google spreadsheet and post a link to that so everyone can see where their favorite GM ranks if its not in the top/bottom 10.

  4. This is a long one. But I beleive its by FAR my best work. I think you will really enjoy it.

  5. BTW: The reason I added "MLB" is to add a searchable keyword. Might help some people find it in a Google/Google News search. Someone might search for "MLB GM rankings" or who knows what, and having both keywords in the headline helps a ton.
