Randy Choate is 39-years old and has played 15 Major League seasons. It's safe to see he's experienced a lot in the game of baseball.

Not only does Choate have a lot of experience that he can pass on to younger players, but he also knows that sometimes it's important to joke around and keep a loose, relaxed atmosphere around a club.
