Former KC Royals legends son MJ Sweeney commits. Big 1B was at Texas last year before getting cut at semester. Big kid. Big upside!!

Nice. Maybe the old man will make a few appearances in Wichita this summer.

Very cool. We may be onto something.

This is a kid that grew up in major league clubhouses around major league coaching & likely could’ve played anywhere he pleased with his dads connections (and a hell of a lot of God given talent)

If you aren’t paying attention, it’s time to start

Started at Texas. When MJ got drafted out of high school, Mike specifically asked the Horns coaches if there was any fear that MJ could get cut. They assured him there was not. MJ went to college instead of going pro…and proceeded to get cut in December. Wasn’t a bad kid. Worked hard. Great teammate. Just “got **** on” (Mike’s words in Hosmer podcast, not mine).

As Mike alluded in his interview with Shane, MJ wasn’t looking for the shiny toy. He wanted to go where he could develop as a baseball player and as a man and thinks that he found that place to be here.
