hopefully some of you haven't seen this yet. Good inspiring piece to brighten up your offseason...well, by brighten, i really mean it will make you feel better as you sit there refreshing mlbtraderumors and twitter feeds cursing his name...give the man some credit!
More praise for Mike Minor, this time coming from Tom Glavine, another "soft tossing" lefty who managed to stick in the bigs and do alright for himself. Frank Wren is also pretty impressed, apparently: "Take away about six pitches all year and he's been nearly perfect. He could come very fast." The article also confirms that he's hitting 94-95 this year on the gun.
Not sure if it's to hammer out a deal or anything, but I did read that the Nats are not really interested in signing the lefty veteran as has been reported recently.
