這篇指出30支球隊中,走到職業生涯交叉路口的球員。
這些人大多經歷過傷痛,或有數個讓人失望的球季,或一直沒有足夠機會能證明自己
有點像是 "各隊中最需要拿出表現" 之類的期末考名單......
節錄作者在前言的(抽象)定義:
We learn best when we are able to see ourselves in those we admire or envy.
With that in mind, here is the player on each MLB team whose career is on the
line this spring. Don't focus on the millions these guys may have already made;
think about what it must be like to know you're playing for the right to keep
chasing your dream. Think about how it feels when you're playing for
everything, and the world calls it an exhibition.
