You can save your prospects and touted wunderkinds. I want to see the rejects and the retreads — those who have taken a second chance and succeeded. This is why I love baseball. It offers the unique opportunity for players to keep trying after failing. Baseball stands as a wonderful game of second chances.
Failure is one of the common denominators in life. We all fail sometimes, and professional sports players are not immune. Fortunately, for most people, failure means having to change tack and try again. For most professional sport figures, failure can be a death knell for their ability to make a living as a player.
