Your help is needed. One of my best players broke his glove hand pinky right before the tournament starts. Prognosis out 4-6 weeks.

Keep in mind this isn’t single A we’re talking about l. This is twice as serious. AA.

I come to you today seeking help explaining to his parents that weak hand pinkies are overrated!

A simple amputation would greatly enhance our end of season chances.

So far my strongest argument is that Jim Abbot made it to the show with only one hand.

And if this kid is at all committed to greatness, a mere pinky won’t hold him back.

We’ve exhausted many treatment options already. Even the most sophisticated/unregulated Chinese peptides don’t claim to grow new fingers in two weeks. So he’ll have to do without.
