The most absurd story I've ever typed.
And it is 100% true.
This one’s gonna be a roller coaster so stick with me.
There's also ZERO educational content so if you're here for that, apologies.
Only thing going on here is an absolute bananaland story.
You ever been robbed?
Held at Gunpoint?
Mugged and sent to the hospital?
With all your belongings stolen?
Honestly I really hope the answer is no.
BUT
Well, what if I told you that i know MULTIPLE Professional and college baseball players that this has happened to. (That I Know Personally)
IN THE LAST MONTH
Don’t believe me?
Here’s the link to one of them: LINK
Oh but that's Barstool Sports, not a real publication. (they used my tweet in the article so I used theirs)
You know what? Fair enough, here's another LINK
There is a google search to about 10 other places that posted the same story.
And I'll add some Receipts at the end for the other Non Believers.
Actually, i’ll put them right here.
and here
Dylan is a personal friend of mine, a catch partner and someone I have trained with for years now.
Shows up every day
LITERALLY
(even when he gets mugged and has to have the cops take him)
But he almost couldn’t, and that brings us to the next point of our Newsletter.
Minor League Baseball has never been better.
The players are getting better conditions, the talent is better than ever and its a great time to be alive.
However, no matter what changes have been implemented it is still a struggle year in and year out to make ends meet for MiLB players and college players that have unfortunate events happen in their life.
It happens all over the place, everyone knows the world is a crazy place and is getting nothing but crazier as the days go on.
And there's something we can do about it.
These players lost all their belongings, Dylan lost his car and others had everything stolen with no way to replace it.
Worst part? They will never ask for the help they need.
Ever.
They will just throw themselves into a bad position or take on absurd amounts of unnecessary stress.
Or even give up their training to make ends meet.
We are here so that doesn't happen.
You guys know that this Non Profits Purpose is funding youth activities and athletes to provide opportunities for the youth.
This newsletter does that, and provides some high level insight for young players that they otherwise wouldn't find anywhere else.
So allow me to introduce to you
The:
And yes, I know the name is ELITE.
This fund goes directly towards players that have had the worst luck ever. Who work absurdly hard and get repaid with the most unfortunate circumstances imaginable.
Going forward, leading up into the professional season all donations will go towards helping people who have gone through an unimaginable event.
That they in no way could have stopped.
And had ZERO way of seeing it coming.
Every Penny.
Goes directly to them.
I want to be able to help the people who put their heart and soul into their sport and don’t get what they deserve in return.
People who empty the tank to be their best will always have a soft spot with me.
I know a lot of you feel the same way.
So if you can
Consider donating to the fund, and helping some people that had brutal luck.
It will go directly to getting them back on their feet.
In the past, we have had an UNBELIEVABLE output of support.
And I would never do something like this unless it was needed.
I'll be sending out updates as they come.
We appreciate your support.
