How about Josh Hamilton...

[HHSDawgs1424]

First big league hit is a homerun. Great story that young man is and what a great example he has set as to what hard work and determination after rough times can do for you.

No in my private league. I checked everyday on the hour waiting for them to add him. Lets just say a lot of people want him

I was just giving you a hard time.

I'm glad this kid has finally got his life back on track. Had a lot of promise then developed a lot of unhealthy habits. Seems like he has got things straightened out, and the Reds got a steal with him.

I am more impressed with his two walks than his homer, he worked the count full fouled off close pitches and has work the count better than any red has this season.

He does have a good eye for someone that's been out of the game for quite sometime. Congrats, hopefully just the tip of the iceberg from 33.

For what all he has gone through, good for him.

[All Play No Work]

He is to be commended for overcoming his demons.

 

Hope everyone is patient with him if he tires (hasn't really played for awhile) or if major league pitchers figure him out a bit after he is in the league awhile.

 

He has the abilities to be sound player even if there are some rough spots along the way.
