Die hard White Sox and Angels fan. I joined the Rotoballer family in January 2018, and I've been writing about baseball in one way or another since 2014. I spent the 2016 season as the beat writer covering the Ogden Raptors for the local newspaper, and from 2018-2020 I was the social media manager and team photographer for the Bristol Pirates (RIP Appalachian League).
