A Few Minutes with Jack McGeary
« Topic Start: March 13, 2009, 04:17:38 PM »
I am not big on pimping my own site, but I figured folks would be interested to see what Jack McGeary had to say when I spoke with him today (link).   Nothing earth-shattering.

But the fact he's going to pitch the whole season instead of waiting until the end of the quarter and then leaving early is news.  That's good news if you ask me.

Don't be so humble.  Your site deserves to be pimped.  Thanks for the link.

Coincidentally, there was a Post article about McGeary today. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/03/13/AR2009031302812.html

I, honestly, had completely forgotten about him.   :shock:

It's a little bit of news because McGeary has finally made public what Bowden had already announced (before he was supposed to) back in January, as previously discussed here:

What I take away from all of this is: McGeary's parents want him to get a degree from Stanford. Instead of gravy training off of their son, they are looking out for his best interest. Sure you can play a full season of pro ball, provided that you are on schedule to graduate on time.

He did go to Roxbury Latin, which is the top school academically in Massachusetts, and one of the top schools in the country.

McGeary is somewhat under the radar, which is fairly ironic considering that he could be a top 3 pitcher in our rotation some day.

:lol: All bloggers say that, but what it really means is: please go to my site. Bloggers wouldn't blog if they didn't want people looking at the fruits of their labor.

While we are on the subject, don't you dare go to my site. ;)
