Baseball Almanac Top Quote

"To fully understand what he and his mother and friends are feeling, you have to know this is the culmination of a long, arduous, eight-year journey. No, it goes back years before that. Back when he was three and his grandfather taught him to throw a baseball in Venezuela and instilled the dream of pitching in America, in the major leagues. Raised by his mother and grandfather, he left home at 16, after being signed, to live at the Tigers Baseball Academy. After pitching two seasons in the Venezuelan Summer League, just as he was about to be promoted to rookie ball, he blew out his elbow and needed Tommy John surgery. He restarted his climb in 2015, then in 2017, while pitching for Low-A West Michigan, and just starting to put himself on the organization’s radar, he was suspended 30 games for his role in a brawl. He picked up a ball and hurled it at a group of opposing players, hitting one player in the leg. Then there were the two stalled years at Lakeland where it would have been easy for the Tigers to drop him off the 40-man roster. But there was something about him—a competitiveness, a toughness perhaps. He not only stuck on the 40-man roster, he was invited to big league camp two springs in a row. 'You know, what I lived before I started playing baseball has helped me to be here,' he said. 'It gave me strength to keep battling and to do my best.'" - Chris McCosky in The Detroit News (05/05/2019, Just a dream? Signed at 16, Eduardo Jimenez finally reaches Tigers after long road, Source)
