He’s Logan Gillaspie, and he comes from frontier country! Born and raised in Bakersfield, California, Gillaspie went undrafted out of high school and spent the next several years bouncing around various independent and community college leagues in the great American West. He went from Oxnard, California to Monterey and Sonoma County before moving on to Salina, Kansas, Helena, Montana, and Utica, Michigan (go East Side Diamond Hoppers!), all before signing his first contract with an affiliated team. I bet this guy has some great dive bar recommendations in every faded, post-industrial town west of the Mississippi. The Red Sox just picked him up off the waiver wire after he was dropped by the Baltimore Orioles.
