"This is baseball now. They don’t care how old you are, don’t care what you did in Topeka in 2019, don’t care if you’ve never done something before. Teams identify skills, and they sharpen those skills, teach the player how to get the most from those skills, and if that player can help them win, they put the player in position to succeed."
