Baseball players and coaches better be drinking lots of water.  For hours at a time, they chew tobacco, gum, salted sunflower seeds, which causes them to spit, spit, and spit.  I’m always looking at the ground to make sure I don’t step in a puddle of saliva. 

Would I scout a player that spits all game?  Sure I would.  He must be a ‘real’ baseball player.  All jokes aside; being a scout is probably the most underrated position in sports.  Without having a good scout, good luck on having a good team.  I’m working with some of the league’s best this week.  I hope this week changes my perspective of the game.  I am going to learn much more being a part of the sport, rather than the spectator.
