This is something that’s bothering me the more I think about it. If a video of an interview in which I appeared is removed by the MLB Network, did it — and by extension, did I — ever exist? Several years ago (in fact, more than two years after it was released), I was a […]

Three broken bones in my dominant are makes it difficult to type, but it’s part of my physical therapy so […]
