I have one more year of baseball eligibility left. One more year to show the major league scouts that I'm worth it. That I'm good enough to play professional baseball for them. But honestly, I'm not sure that I am. So far, not a single scout has approached me. There are no agents banging down my door, hoping to represent me, no emails, no phone calls, no messages through Coach Jackson. No, nothing.
I also want what all my friends have found; a girlfriend, a partner, a teammate. I know I come off as Fullton State's biggest player, but it's all a front. A defense mechanism. As long as I call the shots and keep the ladies playing by my rules, I can't get humiliated like I did my Freshman year. I know I need to change, but when girls only want to be with me because I'm a baseball player....
What happens if I no longer am one?
Who will want me then?
