First thing I did was, I went to check out all these baseball stats pages I could find, I mean all, trying to piece together his career. I found this player page that had everything about him - his minor league stuff, college, even summer league games! It was wild, all this info in one place, even his awards.
Then, I dug deeper, looking for every single game he played. It took forever, seriously! But I found this site that listed them all, every game with complete stats. I was like a kid in a candy store, clicking through each one, seeing how he did.
- Checked out his biography.
- Got the lowdown on his draft info.
- Even found out about his salary and transactions.
Then I stumbled upon this article mentioning he was from Tallahassee. I was like, "No way, that's kinda cool!" Made him seem more real, you know? Not just some stats on a page, I even tried to search his address, but of course, I didn't get any exact result, I got some random address like 555 N. Central Ave. #406-C Phoenix, I don't even know if this was real.
I spent a good chunk of my day just immersed in John Wasdin's baseball world. I even looked at some 2024 stats, just to compare how the game's changed. It was a total rabbit hole, but a fun one!
A Whole Day on This
I was thinking, man, this is what it's like to really get into something. You start with a simple search, and next thing you know, you're learning all sorts of things, connecting dots you never thought to connect. Like that article I found at the end, something about thought patterns, it didn't even have anything to do with baseball, but it was interesting how one thing leads to another. It's a reminder to keep your mind open, you know? You never know what you'll find when you go exploring.
Anyway, that was my day. Just wanted to share my little adventure. Maybe you'll get inspired to go down your own rabbit hole sometime. It's worth it!
