Around SBN: The End Of Sabanball: Details, Barbarians, And Precision

There is an article on Jordan Schafer in the new ESPN Mag

It looks to be about his journey from being suspended because of HGH to the majors. It's a pretty good article and it tells alot about who he is and how he's changed since being drafted and being a big primadonna. I think the whole drug thing has humbled him and in a way may have made him a better person. Apparently he and Matt Diaz have become really good friends having worked out together in the offseason.

Havn’t read the story yet, but I find it funny that him and Diaz have become good friends. Not sure why.

Because Diaz is on drugs and twitching?

This straight out of Eastboud and Down. I love Schaffer even more now!

“I rode his ass about attitude,” Weitzel says. "He was the cockiest damn 12-year-old who’s ever lived. Baseball America called him the best 13-year-old player in the country, and that made it worse. He’d strike a guy out in high school and give him the guns-and-holster thing. I’d say, ‘You can’t be shushing the crowd as you round the bases when there’s only 20 people in the stands!’ "
