No matter what team you like this story was truely amazing to watch. He was a good pitcher and then all of a sudden the meltdown happened, he never did recover from that, well in pitching anyway.
Think about it though most peoplewould have buried themsevles in a corner and we would have never heard from them again. They would have been depressed and on all sorts of medication and most likely we would have found them in some homeless shelter 10 years later after they blew all the cash they made over the career.
But Rick was different, he went down to single A ball and tried to become an outfielder because he knew he could hit the long ball and that the chicks loved it.....then steriods, or HGH I forget which one the report said he was on, again this nearly destroyed every other's position players careers but Rick once again as made it through the rain and appears he will have a nice career in the outfield playing in the New Bush Stadium.... I am not sure if it is a feel good story because of the Roids, but he is a guy who seems to work hard to improve his game and skills.
