Major versatile player looking for fresh start
Hi. I am a 62 year old player in so cal looking for a new team to play on. I can play well above average outfield, above average infielder and I am the best fielding pitcher that I have ever seen. I am committed and looking for a team that has one goal in mind. To win every tournament that they enter. I am also willing to form a partnership with anyone who would like to sponsor or partly sponsor a team. I look forward to hearing from you

I may be in a moment of delusional euphoria so you may want to respond before I wake up tomorrow. Even though I am still open to playing with another team, i might be willing to start a new 60 major or even triple A team and sponsor all tournament fees for starters. Anyone not currently on a roster or feeling like they might want to make a change and are ready to stay focused for a season in which none of us know how many more there will be for us, send me a note and let me know that you are interested. If you know me, you know that I am a very intense athlete but have always felt like I am a team player. I will be fair, direct, not expect anything out of anyone that I wouldnt set the example for, and I am a fun guy but winning makes me a funner guy. If you like to play a set position and you are the player on the team that helps us the most at that position, you will stay there all season. Continuity is as important as chemistry. All the outfielders should know how the player on their left and right goes after a ball and it doesnt matter who catches the ball, as long as there is communication. This could be a great opportunity or it could be a massive train wreck. I will take responsibility for the latter and we will all share the success of the former. I look forward to hearing from you and even taking suggestions for a new team name. Thanks for taking the time to read this. Dan. 714 290-5702 MRDJF@HOTMAIL.COM

Youjustgotbetter,who have you been playing with? I know of a 55 major team that has 5-6 very dedicated, outstanding players that are looking to age up. The team has been very competitive at 55 AAA and even at 55 major over the last 3years. Unfortunately they haven't played
much over the last two years. Just reaching out.

Okay, I have officially gone round the bend. I am committed to forming a new team. Preferably a 55 triple A team but that is negotiable as the team rounds into form. This is a FULLY sponsored team. All tournament fees, uniforms, and miscellaneous other fees as determined by the manager, aka me, will be 100 percent covered. Now that I have your attention, this is what I am looking for.
1 Team players committed to the single goal of winning every single tournament that we enter and are relatively egoless and can accept whatever field position that I feel you can help the team out most and whatever part of the order you can help keep the lineup turning.
2. Mostly local California players that can get together for practices/batting practice and spend time bonding with other teammates and let me see what you are capable of.
3. If you know me, I have a reputation of being intense, sometimes to my embarrassment. I consider myself a team player and will support all of you on the team through good or bad. I am a communicator so if there needs to be a discussion or change, I will make it.
4. No prima donnas allowed. If you think you are better than everyone else and know more than everyone else, feel free to find another team. I have a lot of experience with prima donnas, including the one that looks back at me in the mirror. It is not conducive to chemistry.
5. Everyone comes ready to play at the time the team designates. No late stragglers showing up at game time and wondering why they arent leading off. No drinking during games. If I need a third base coach, you are ready to run out there and are not in the middle of a discussion with a teammate about last nights WWF cage match.
6.We will have fun. I am a fun person with a good sense of humor. It wont be all seriousness and no lighthearted banter. I can dish it out more than I can take it but hopefully I can learn to take it more.
7. We have time to put this thing together. I am looking at Spring worlds in March, Southwest Championship in April, So cal state championship(TOC), Western National Championship and World Championships. And any other local tournaments that we elect to play in.
8. If interested, email me with a little information about yourself, including shirt size and hat size. If you are confident, which I hope that you all are, I want to hear you tell me what your strengths are.
9. The team name as of this moment will be TOUGH GLOVE. Obvious play on words but there will be an emphasis on defense. Good defense kills rallies. We all get caught up in trying to outhit the other team but many times, that just doesnt happen for a variety of reasons. Defense usually always shows up. Thanks for your interest and I am looking forward to this challenge. Dan. MRDJF@HOTMAIL.COM 714 290-5702
