    That's awesome. The season just started for my son, too. He's the smallest on the team but has the best arm.

    Small sample size. Not convinced until Zito posts the advanced metrics.

    Don't get me wrong. Mine doesn't seem to care either. Just figured we'd give it a try.

    Doesn't care? Was she doing this too much?

    That is so cool, mine is the opposite, she hits like Evan Gattis but fields like Chris Johnson, but the wife wants her in soccer and tennis anyway. She is in gymnastics and swimming now and then near fall going to play soccer then dance, rinse and repeat. I just don't have any say, but I understand. The wife stays at home and ferry them around so I don't have to do it and all of her girlfriend kids are around the same age so I know what the deal is.

    Isn't it cool watching them grow up? She always want to help me or the wife in our projects no matter how small she is, she still wants to try. Now my son, 666 is etched in his head somewhere and thinking of finding a priest before I see green puke come out of his mouth. He took, my wife's guitar case (those expensive ones) and kept jumping up and down on it. I asked him why did he do that. He just looked at me with a wicked grin. Damien 2.0.

    Too bad you live so far away, might need a good teacher for my lil one, she can forehand like no other, but she doesn't seem to grasp the backhand, maybe because she is not as coordinated. We will know more next summer when she can actually get lessons. Right now, it is strictly badminton so she knows how to swing with racket and eye coordination.

    Coordination will come with time. Expecting greatness from someone still growing is usually a mistake. Oftentimes some of the best athletes I've known didn't get great until they were in high school.

    If you do indeed move to North Carolina, we can workout something. You'd only be a few hours away!
