You just never know about pitchers and injuries.<br /><br />But if you can have a big league career, baseball is the best of any of the sports in terms of longevity and salary. Good players can last into their 40s now. Surprisingly there are a lot of 40+ pitchers.Paul K.

I kind of wish he was up for the NFL draft instead. Pitchers are prone to serious injuries.Gary R.

There was a pitcher from my hometown, Bryan Bullington, drafted #1 in the first round coming out of Ball State in 2003. He&#39;s had a few cups of coffee in the majors but has been plagued by injury problems. He&#39;s probably running out of chances. It&#39;s a great opportunity to have though. Good luck to your nephew.Paul K. Ogdenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16137003328850866711noreply@blogger.com
