Baseball Etc.

"Don't set yourself on fire trying to keep others warm." -- author Penny Reid

I've got a lot of random baseball information, and I have access to even more random information, so I decided to group it all here for your time-killing pleasure. Wanna know about undrafted American major leaguers? It's here. What about guys injured by the ball itself? It's here. So are all the nine-figure contracts, all the (known) rule-breakers, and perhaps the most random of all: dudes with the same or similar names who aren't kin.

​

And that's just a partial list. Continue on:
