Dj I said as much...if he went to wichita state out of high school the only reason he wasn't drafted (and are you sure he wasn't?) Was because they knew 100% he was going to school. Wichita state is an elite baseball program. And clearly he wasn't pro ready as he's still playing AAA...so the college education is of more value to him than a 10K bonus to sign out of high school.

I remember my first time running the 40. At one point in time I was the fastest kid in the school (5th and 6th grade [middle school]), but it wasn't until sometime near the end of 9th grade that I ran it for the first time. I hit puberty super late and I was probably 5'2'' 110 lbs. So I run it and clock a 5.4. I was pissed! I assumed I was going to clock a 4.9 or something respectable so I made them clock me three more times and hit 5.3-5.4 every time. At that time I had never touched a weight or played any sports competetively so that was that. Fast forward a few months to the beginning of my sophomore year. I had hit a little growth spurt so I was like 5'4'' or so and had "bulked up" to about 120 lbs. Not only that I was in much better running condition so I clocked a 4.87.

I never ran the 40 again but I'd imagine I could have shaved off another second or so after I got taller and added more leg strength. These days I can run with a good friend of mine that plays college baseball. If I remember correctly he said he runs a 6.9 60 and I run with him after six months of laying on my ass while he's off conditioning 6 days a week. We're neck and neck after the 40 but by 60 he's got about a half-stride on me so I think I'm pretty fast, considering...
