Trade A Player A Year Too Early

Baseball People Are Generally Allergic To New Ideas; It Took Years To Persuade Them To Put Numbers On Uniforms, And It Is The Hardest Thing In The World To Get Major League Baseball To Change Anything—even Spikes On A New Pair Of Shoes—but They Will Eventually...they Are Bound To.

Things Worthwhile Generally Don’t Just Happen. Luck Is A Fact, But Should Not Be A Factor. Good Luck Is What Is Left Over After Intelligence And Effort Have Combined At Their Best. Negligence Or Indifference Are Usually Reviewed From An Unlucky Seat. The Law Of Cause And Effect And Causality Both Work The Same With Inexorable Exactitudes. Luck Is The Residue Of Design.

The Man With The Ball Is Responsible For What Happens To The Ball.

A Great Ballplayer Is A Player Who Will Take A Chance.
