Nice little off-day article from JJO on Lance's struggles. Lance, you don't really care, do you? But you're so happy-go-lucky! Baseball really doesn't matter to you, right?
“That couldn’t be any further from the truth. You wish that those people could experience just one of the sleepless nights where you lay awake and think about every one of your at-bats and what you could have done differently. Or when you don’t want to eat because your stomach’s in knots because you’re concerned about your performance, the time when you’re short with your wife and kids because you’re thinking about not doing well in the game and the battle that you have to go through. You live that way for three-quarters of the year, and it’s not fun.”
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
