This is a blog about my first year out of the college life and in my first season as a professional baseball player for the Pittsburgh Pirates organization. Just some thoughts on things and feelings at the time.

First Week of Minor Leagues
Well the trip out to Pittsburg to sign was pretty fun, minus the fact i had to get up at 430am to go to the airport. After flying to Arizona and then to Pittsburg, i was pretty exhausted, but i had to meet up with a rep from the team and then check out the Pirates and Orioles game that was going on. After a few innings i left because i was exhausted from my trip. I went o bed at 930pm which was the earliest I've ever been to bed before. I woke up at 4am and couldn't fall back asleep so i had to stay up until 7am which was when my physical was. So after my physical i got to watch more of another game while i waited for my physical to go through. After that i officially signed my papers and got shipped out to state college to meet the team i'll be playing on. After meeting a few of the guys, i got my gear and then went to my hotel to sleep. The next day we headed out Jamestown NY to play our first road series. It was a pretty uneventful trip, but our first game yesterday got rained out, and today isn't looking any better. More to come, time to go to the field.
