The latest from the always great Joe Posnanski, this time guest posting over at Pitchers & Poets:
Best I could tell, Jeff King did not like playing baseball. I can never remember seeing a player who seemed so miserable on a baseball diamond.
Please click through and read the article. I would not say that Jeff didn’t try hard or didn’t give his all while he was on the field. I will say that he never quite filled the expectations I had for him and this seems to me to be at least a partial explanation of why.
Look for more on Jeff King in tomorrow’s Trade Tree Thursday!
