“The Indians’ Trevor Bauer has been one of the top prospects in baseball leading up to spending the majority of the 2014 MLB season in the big leagues.

“Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.”
~ Thomas A. Edison
Sorry that the volume in the video below isn’t great, but hopefully you get point that Bauer is making: Even if you’re not getting the opportunities you deserve right now, DON’T stop working hard so that you’re always ready and at your best.
