I tuned in for a few minutes on sports talk radio, where we saying nothing but HOT SPORTS TAKES, over the lunch hour. Whoever was hosting that show was talking about the timing part of this announcement. He makes the announcement right before the MLB rosters are expanded. Is this a promotional stunt to sell some jerseys? If he was serious, wouldn't he announce it over the winter and hold try-outs then? Would he really go to rookie ball league and earn his way up to the MLB? So much hotness in 5 minutes worth of listening.
