How are you?
uh great question so basically my whole career um has been a pretty crazy story from start to finish and more and more people were like kind of on me about man you need to tell your story more uh you're a pretty good storyteller you're really good at like breaking stuff down and making it digestible uh for younger players and and like the younger audience so
About a year ago, I was rehabbing elbow surgery.
I wasn't getting any offers to go play anywhere.
I was kind of going through it.
And one of my good friends talked me into starting a podcast.
And that was kind of the start of it.
And then through that, I'm like, all right, let's do it.
Because if somehow I get back to the big leagues, it's going to be a great story.
So I started doing it.
And for sure, the hardest part is getting past that vulnerability wall.
The first day that we posted a video on YouTube, my heart was racing all day long.
I felt like I was standing in front of 100,000 people about to do a speech.
But I've gotten a lot of good feedback.
Honestly, in a way, watching the videos myself has been therapeutic for me.
um for where I am in my career and I don't know if you've seen the last few but um over the last month-ish to almost two months now uh I'm home now obviously I wasn't in Mexico playing um I ended up not pitching well and had some other things happening got released came home I'm 37
haven't got a whole lot of love from teams in the states lately and been evaluating you know like what's next and it feels like uh as of now at least i don't think pursuing baseball like as a player uh is in my in my nearest future but um anything could happen i guess right now i'm trying to
figure out uh you know what's next it's definitely something baseball it's still my story to tell so the videos are going to keep coming um and really what i've learned in this moment is uh this every every pro athlete and even amateur athlete has this moment right where like the sport that you've played your whole life is no longer something that you do
Now what?
And so I think it's going to be just as impactful sharing my journey through this process of like, now what?
