Scouting Video: Nathan Mikolas, 1B, #124, Yankees (2012 Draft)
By The Baseball Beginnings Guy
July 16, 2012
Dear Oppenheimer — Hey, I liked this guy a lot last summer. I did. So here’s a Wisconsin kid being drafted by the Yankees while my book about the Milwaukee Braves beating the New York Yankees is on the shelves. Oh, man, you gotta love the irony. I could start cracking Bob Zuk jokes that only you and I would understand, you know, the joke about John Young’s hat, but only you, I and three other scouts would get the joke. We’ll just let the rest of the baseball world guess, which is what Bob would love. You know it as well as I.
Dear Nate — Dude, I think you can hit. Make me right. This post is not affiliated with the Yankees, but it is sponsored by my witty sense of humor. Get to it, Wisconsin.
My next book follows Hank Aaron, Eddie Mathews and Warren Spahn to their stunning World Series upset against the mighty Yankees! The team and year that changed the modern era! The underdog wins! BUSHVILLE WINS! In Stores on July 3, 2012 or click the cover to get it on Amazon.
This story is sponsored by Bushville Wins!: The Wild Saga of the 1957 Milwaukee Braves and the Screwballs, Sluggers and Beer Swiggers Who Canned the New York Yankees and Changed Baseball, released July 3, 2012! (PS — You ain’t sh*t until you face guys like Aaron.) Pre-order on Amazon or Barnes&Noble.
