he's almost 24 so less surprising a uy with good results in the SEC with that much experience would dominate Low A.

Per Matt’s Bats, Henseler has retired already. Struggled badly in a few games at A+ last year.

25 now, with a UPenn degree and maybe an A&M masters. I will guess he has options. If he wants to stay in baseball, he might have a front office path. Heck, he's probably older than some of the Nats assistant GMs.

I know a guy who went to high school and college with Mark DeRosa, who claimed he could have made more money with his degree than he made playing.

Wasn't DeRosa the QB for some good Quakers teams? I wonder what it's like to be so talented and skilled at so many things.
If he wasn't coaching the USA in the wbc, I think he would have been a good candidate for the Nats manager or even gm
