Del Leonard Jones Exclusive

Del Leonard Jones began his journalism career at USA Today in 1992. Over the years, Jones has made his mark on the industry as he has written over 300 cover stories.

Recently Jones published his second novel, At The Bat: The Strikeout that shamed America, which is currently number nine on Goodreads list of 112 greatest novels ever.

The novel is set in 1888 and is based on the timeless fiction poem Casey At the Bat, by Ernest Thayer. The book expands on the legend of the Mighty Casey and the strikeout that is immortalized in baseball legend. Jones looks at how one strikeout affected so many in a truly unique story.

On Tuesday morning, I was able to talk with Del about his journalism career and his most recent novel, which is becoming a must read.

This Interviewed occurred on January 13th, 2020

Jamie Gatlin: (JG) I read that you are a Nationals and Giants fan, why those two teams?

Del: (D) The Giants were my favorite team growing up. My parents grew up in the San Francisco Bay area, so I inherited the Giants. They were my favorite team until I moved to the Washington, D.C. area in 1992 which was before they even had a team.

When the Washington team started back up, I became a fan of theirs’s as well. I was a little disappointed that it wasn’t an American league team because now I have two National league teams.

JG: In your time at USA Today you also wrote about Economics and Business Travel, how is that different than writing about sports?

D: It’s quite a bit different. I started as a small-town sports reporter, and I don’t know if someone told me this or I just figured it out, but Its kind of like how in baseball, the fastest way to the major leagues is as a catcher. I think the quickest way to a major newspaper is through business reporting. I like business and economics but it’s not as creative. Sports journalism, to me, is the most creative form of journalism.

JG: You also made an audiobook which really was fun to listen to because of how much personality you put into it. What was that process like?

D: I really enjoyed it. It’s really easy to get an actor or professional book reader to do your book. You basically have to give them fifty percent of the royalties. I’m not real strong at technology, but I used Audacity, which was pretty easy to use. It allowed me to put my own personality into it.

JG: Why did you choose to center the novel around the poem Casey AT The Bat ?

Del: I was having trouble coming up with a sustainable story for a novel , and my father had the poem, The Cremation of Sam McGee memorized. It’s a poem that has good balance and has a twist at the end, just like Casey At the Bat. When I finished my first book, I had Casey AT the Bat in the back of my mind.

Plus, I’m a fast-pitch softball umpire, and I knew that the poem was never written from an umpire’s point of view. I can’t think about another non-fiction book written from an umpire’s perspective, so I got excited about that. Other than Casey, the umpire is the most important star in the poem and I really focused on making him a more interesting character.

JG: How hard was it to research some of these characters that you based on players in real-life that haven’t played in over a hundred years?

D: Even before I started writing, I did quite a bit of research on the poem itself. I was never able find the original version; and I talked to a couple baseball historians who had never seen the original. I kept reading that it was in the San Francisco Examiner and I was finally able to find it at the University of California Berkley, where it was on microfilm.

In terms of the players I looked for interesting players in 1888. One player I used was Moses Fleetwood Walker who until recently was the last African American major league player until Jackie Robinson.

JG: That was one part that stood out to me particularly with the MLB announcing last month that negro league players will be considered major leaguers.

Del: It’s really made people think about the history of baseball. It’s going to be interesting to see how they sync up the statistics. It will take a lot of research to find what they actually did in the games.

JG: When you wrote this novel how did you aim to have it stand out compared to other sports novels?

Del: There are not many good baseball or even sports fiction books out there. I’m not sure why that is because there’s have been few that have become movies like Shoeless Joe Jackson and The Natural. I’ve noticed men who watch baseball gravitate more towards non-fiction and primarily like to read non-fiction. I think it’s just not a big market for fiction.

JG: How did the strikeout shame America?

Del: I get asked that a lot for a couple reasons but I can’t really disclose because it might spoil the book, it’s a shameful ending for Cassy himself. He’s kind of this sports hero in the eyes of the public he can do no wrong and he is a very flawed person. The other major character is the umpire who is just doing his job, he doesn’t really care who wins.

He has three pitches that are really close and the first two he calls strikes. On the third one Cassy swings at a ball that isn’t a strike so it’s just kind of shameful how the umpire is treated. He gets chased down after the game and everyone is trying to find him and blame him for Caseys strikeout.

JG: Finally, what has been like to see your novel takeoff and get the attention it has?

Del: It’s been nice. I’m getting a lot of feedback from people I don’t know. When you write something, you think it’s good, but you don’t know how it will be received. So far, it’s been received well, and I’m kind of enjoying that.

JG: At the Bat: The Strikeout that Shamed America by Del Leonard Jones can be found on Amazon on paperback.

Red Sox’s Casey Sutherland Fulfilling Childhood Dream

Over the past year, many Minor Leaguers witnessed their careers being put on pause. In 2020, as the Minor League season was canceled, several players were even cut. One prospect that was off to an impressive start was reliever Casey Sutherland. The Davidson product made his pro debut in 2019 and owns a unique journey to the Red Sox organization.

Two years ago, the Orlando native was preparing for life after baseball when he got a call that would change his life. The Red Sox were on the line and offered him a spot in the Florida Gulf Coast League.

“I was actually in the airport when the Red Sox called,” said Sutherland. ” I was planning on attending Vanderbilt for graduate school and was going to look at apartments. So I called the school and asked if I could do this without losing my spot. They were great and told me to go live the dream, and if it doesn’t work out, come back to us in a couple of years.”

For Sutherland, it was a dream come true. The Red Sox were his favorite team growing up and the first Little League team he ever played with.

“The whole process was unreal,” he added. “Walking around the facility and seeing all these guys, I was starstruck. At Spring Training, I walked past guys like Jackie Bradley Jr., J.D. Martinez, and Steve Pearce. It was unbelievable.”

Sutherland’s career so far

Although Sutherland has only been at one big league camp, he has received advice from several of the Red Sox’s veterans, including Chris Sale.

“Sale came up to me during workouts and told me what to focus on and what I was doing wrong,” said Sutherland. A lot of the veterans did that with the younger guys. It was cool that they gave us advice rather than treating us like someone trying to take their jobs.”

Since joining the Red Sox, Sutherland has been dominant in his pro career. In 12 games, he has posted a 0.64 ERA. Additionally, the Davidson product has struck out 28 batters in 28.1 innings of work. The Orlando, Fla., native has also shown excellent control, walking just one batter.

While Sutherland has been used out of the bullpen, he does have some experience as a starter. At Davidson, the Red Sox prospect made 22 starts throughout his collegiate career. However, his best year was in 2018 when 20 of his 21 appearances came out of the bullpen.

“The summer heading into my junior year, I realized baseball wasn’t everything and I would be okay without it. That put things in perspective,” said Sutherland. “It allowed me to focus on playing and not on the stats. It’s a mindset that’s helped me a lot in my career.”

What to expect from Sutherland in 2021

Despite Sutherland’s success, he is not taking anything for granted. With fewer Minor League teams this upcoming season, the pressure will increase. However, for the Red Sox righty, it is a challenge he is prepared for as he looks to repeat his 2019 numbers.

“My biggest thing is just building on what was there last season,” said Sutherland. “Bringing back the changeup and focusing on velocity, Just trying to clean up the arm path. My main goal is to stay healthy because I think this year will be much more competitive.”

As Sutherland looks to rise in the Red Sox system, he has modeled his game after Kyle Hendricks, which could be good news for Boston in 2021 and beyond.

“The guy I compare myself the most to is Kyle Hendricks,” said Sutherland. “I don’t try to overpower with velocity, and I’ve actually been working on his two-seamed grip the past two months. It’s fun to kind of copy and incorporate into my game.”

With Opening Day only weeks away, Sutherland is a player that fans should keep an eye on this season

What To Expect From Kevin Plawecki in 2021

Before the 2020 season began, the Boston Red Sox signed Kevin Plawecki to a one-year deal worth $900,000. The addition was not seen as a major upgrade at the time but turned out to be one of the Red Sox’s best additions. In a season full of disappointment, the Illinois native was a bright spot and a hitting machine. While Plawecki will mostly likely regress offensively, he will play an important role on the Red Sox 2021 roster.

Heading into last season, Plawecki was not known for his offense as he has only hit above .222 in a full season once. In a shortened 2020 campaign, Plawecki hit .341 with an OBP of .393. Despite only playing in 26 games, the Red Sox catcher had 28 hits, which was only seven less than his total from 2019, when he appeared in 59 games. Every time Plawecki was at-bat, he seemingly found a way to get on base.

Additionally, Plawecki had 17 runs batted in, which matched his total from 2019. While the former first-round pick thrived offensively, he was also solid behind the plate. Plawecki only committed one error in the field while throwing out 25 % of would be base stealers. Along with Christian Vazquez, the Red Sox had one of the best defensive tandems at the position in baseball.

Furthermore, Plawecki was rewarded for his play this offseason with a one-year deal worth $ 1.6 million. The deal represents a solid raise for Plawecki, who excelled in every aspect of the game. He will have the same role this upcoming season but will receive more playing time due to a longer schedule. While that shouldn’t affect his defense, it may bring down his offensive numbers.

Can Plawecki Repeat His Success?

In 2020 Plawecki made contact on an impressive 94 percent of the pitches he swung at in the zone. That was 12 points higher than his career rate. The veteran catcher also made more contact against breaking balls but walked at a career-low rate. With a larger sample size expected this upcoming season, his numbers should regress closer to his career norms. In 2020 however, Plawecki showed that he could be a solid backup catcher and provided an offensive punch that Sandy Leon could not.

As the Red Sox look to return to the postseason, they are in solid hands with Vasquez and Plawecki behind the plate. The duo was one of the Red Sox strengths last season, and they will be looking to repeat that magic. Regardless of how the season plays out, fans can expect solid defense from Plawecki with some offense sprinkled in.

The Value Of Joe Musgrove

After a slow start to the MLB offseason, the hot stove has ignited over the last few weeks. The Padres shocked the baseball world by acquiring two top arms in Yu Darvish and Blake Snell. With those pitchers off the board, many teams will now turn their attention to other options on the trade market. One pitcher who’s name has become popular in the rumor mill is Joe Musgrove. The Pirates starter is coming off of a career year and is Pittsburgh’s biggest remaining trade piece.

Although Musgrove was limited by injuries last season, he did make eight starts. In 39.2 innings of work, he posted a 3.86 ERA and struck out 55 batters. On a Pirates pitching staff that struggled at times, Musgrove was one of their most consistent arms. The California native was particularly dominant in September as he held opponents to a .226 average.

Furthermore, Musgrove’s strikeout rate increased as he changed his pitching style. In 2020 the former first-round pick used his curveball more than in previous seasons. As a result, his strikeout rate increased by 12 percent, which did cause his walk rate to increase. Musgrove’s control, however, improved as he became more comfortable with his new pitching approach.

While those numbers came in a small sample size, they demonstrate Musgrove’s potential. Since being acquired by Pittsburgh, Musgrove has been an average arm. His underlying numbers, however, suggest he is a better pitcher. Over the past three seasons, the Pirates have been the second-worst defensive team in baseball. That has put more pressure on Pirates pitchers to be perfect.

What Musgrove Brings

Additionally, Musgrove ended the season in dominant fashion. In his final two starts, Musgrove did not allow a run in thirteen innings of work. He also struck out 22 batters in that span and did not allow a home run. That is the pitcher Pittsburgh was expecting to get when they acquired him in the Gerrit Cole trade three years ago.

Although Musgrove would not be easy for Pittsburgh to replace, he could bring back a decent prospect haul. The 28-year-old was nearly dealt at the trade deadline last year before a deal with the Toronto Blue Jays fell through. He also comes with two years of control and his numbers should improve with a change of scenery. Some teams that have shown interest in Musgrove, according to MLB insider Jon Morosi, are the Blue Jays, Boston Red Sox, and Los Angeles Angels.

With Snell now in San Diego, the market for Musgrove should start to heat up. Teams looking for help with pitching would be getting a solid starter full of potential. Musgrove, however, would not come cheap and would most likely cost a package of prospects. With pitchers and catchers reporting in about six weeks, Musgrove may have a new home sooner rather than later.

Is Dan Vladar The Future In Net?

Over the past few seasons, the Boston Bruins have had one of hockey’s best goalie tandems in Tuukka Raska and Jaroslav Halak. While the pair will return next season, the future beyond then is uncertain. Both veteran netminders will be free agents next offseason, likely leaving the Bruins with at least one open spot at the NHL level. Regardless of what the Bruins decide, they have other options in the minors, such as Dan Vladar.

The Bruins prospect got his first taste of the NHL during the playoffs just a few months ago in the second round of the Stanley Cup playoffs. The third-round pick relieved Halak in Game 3 against the Tampa Bay Lightning and struggled as he allowed three goals on fifteen shots. However, the future is still bright for Vladar, who is coming off his best season in the AHL.

In 42 games, Vladar led the AHL with a 0.936 save percentage and GAA of 1.79. Vladar did not allow a goal in shootouts, going six for six in those opportunities. In a shortened season, he proved his value to the Bruins as they start to look towards the future.

Additionally, Vladar’s performance was encouraging considering how his 2018-2019 season went. In Vladar’s second AHL season, he had a 2.73 GAA and save percentage of 0.898. For the first time with Providence, Vladar appeared in more than eight games but struggled with the increased workload. As a result, the young netminder had a lot to prove this past season.

Furthermore, coming into last season, one of Vladar’s weakness was his rebound control. In his standout season, Vladar improved on that as he only allowed 42 goals after allowing 84 the year before. It is something he will look to build on in 2020.

With Rask and Halak under contract for one more year, it is unlikely Vladar will start the upcoming season in Boston. If injuries do arise, he will be the Bruins’ first call. However, the Bruins showed their faith in Vladar by signing him to a three-year extension in August, which comes with an annual cap hit of $750,000.

With the season likely only months away, Vladar will be preparing to show that last year was no fluke as he continues to improve his game. The Bruins also have recently drafted Jeremy Swayman, who is just starting his pro career, but Vladar will be looking to prove that he is the future in net.

Devin Ross Exclusive

So far this offseason, the New England Patriots have seen change throughout their roster. While they have lost some important pieces on both sides of the ball, the changes have created opportunities for other players on the roster.

One player looking to make an impact is Devin Ross, who spent last season on the practice squad. After years of battling injuries, the Colorado product will be looking to make a name for himself this coming season.

Ross, who has been with the Patriots since last season, spoke with us regarding his days at Colorado, adjusting to the NFL, and what fans should expect this upcoming season.

This interview occurred on March 27

Jamie Gatlin (JG): How has the NFL been different than College football for you? 

Devin Ross (DR): I would say, more serious and detailed oriented. Focus on little things way more than in college. Film study is a lot more aggressive and there is more of it. Your mainly with your position group unlike in college when I was with the whole team or just the offensive unit. Now it’s more position friendly but the game has slowed down since I played a no-huddle offensive at Colorado and now we huddle every play. That has been surprising because I thought it would be way faster.

JG: What would you say has been the hardest adjustment so far?

DR: For me, just staying durable. I’ve already been on three teams. The two teams I was with before I got hurt, which is why they released me. I just feel like it’s been being available at all times, I’ve had some freak injuries that I never had before growing up or playing in college. Learning the plays is pretty easy because that is all we really have to focus on.

JG: After your time in Tennessee ended why did you pick New England? 

DR: I have a good agency that also has clients like Tom Brady and [Julian] Edelman. I initially got injured my rookie year in the final preseason game against the Vikings and, during my recovery period, that’s when the Patriots first called me to work out. A few months later, right after the 2018 season, they reached out again. Then they called me before the fourth preseason game in 2019 to see if I could play.

I had been with the Eagles for a month-and-a-half before but had broken my wrist. Last year, the Patriots signed me in Week 7 to the practice squad and I was able to learn the plays and get accustomed to how they do things. I feel like I had a good time there and they liked me so they signed me back.

JG: The Pats have lost and added a lot of guys this offseason, how do you think that will affect the team this year? 

DR: I feel like that team does something different every year. They have a whole system of how they run things and you can’t really question it. I feel like the team will be a success as long as they have the great coaching staff that we have. We just have to compete and get better as a team every day. That’s the plan.

JG: With the departure of Brady, what do you expect from Stidham this year? 

DR: I was with him every day because I was on the practice squad so he was the quarterback for the scout team. He knows the offense like the back of his hand, he helped me learn a lot of the offense and grasp the route concepts. He knows the offense really well from my point of view. He has a really good arm and all the intangibles. I feel like he will be ready, he has the motivation and the mindset to get the job done if the opportunity comes and I’m very confident in whoever Bill [Belichick] chooses at that position.

JG: How do you think the coronavirus will affect the NFL season? Has it pushed back any training that you would usually be doing right now?

DR: It has pushed back a little for me. I’m used to going to a facility and training on my own but I can’t do that right now. I just hope that nothing get’s postponed. I’m sure the OTA’S will get pushed back in some way, they’ve told us that is to be determined and that was supposed to start in April. I just hope that it doesn’t go too far, but it depends on how this whole thing gets handled because we all want to perform and play the sport we love.

JG: What should Patriots fans be looking forward to this year?

DR: For me, I’m just a very determined player and had the opportunity to make a great Tennessee team my rookie year but I got hurt in the preseason. The GM told me I was going to be the fifth receiver but I was undrafted so it didn’t work out. I’ve just been hungry ever since and come in every day to work as hard as I possibly can.

I’m excited about the opportunity to play in a meaningful game, and I feel like everyone in the organization is hungry and they bring the right guys. We have a good future and season ahead.

JG: What are your favorite memories from your college days? 

DR: I would probably say my top one is when we won the Pac-12 South my junior year. In recent years, Colorado had never really had any success overall in the Pac-12. That was our first time really being a good team, we ended 10-4. I’ll never forget that.

It was my best year there and we had one of the best receiving corps in the nation.

The second would be scoring two touchdowns in the “Big House” at Michigan stadium. Playing in front of 111,000 people was awesome. Tom Brady was also the honorary captain for that game, which brought more fans to it and being able to score in that stadium, I’ll never forget that.

Tanner Houck Dazzles In First Major League Stint

The 2020 season was largely a forgettable campaign for the Boston Red Sox. The Red Sox dealt with injuries and finished last in the AL East for the first time since 2015. However, it was not all bad as some prospects, including Tanner Houck and Bobby Dalbec, got their first taste of MLB action. While Dalbec added power to the Red Sox lineup, Houck provided hope to a struggling rotation.

The former first-round pick appeared in three games for Boston but was masterful. In 17 innings of work, Houck struck out 21 batters and only allowed one earned run. During his first MLB stint, Houck also held opponents to a .113 batting average and finished with a 0.53 ERA.

Additionally, Houck only allowed one home run and six hits in that span. The St. Louis native also went six innings in two of his three starts and struck out 10 Braves batters in his final start. Houck was nothing short of spectacular after bouncing between the rotation and bullpen in the minors.

Furthermore, Houck is looking to change a trend within the organization. Over the years, the Red Sox have struggled to produce pitching and relied on free agency and trades. Due to free agency deals such as David Price’s contract, the Red Sox found themselves with salary-cap issues. The last pitcher the franchise drafted and developed was Clay Buchholz, who was talented but inconsistent and often injured.

Entering next season, Houck will have to make adjustments as the league adapts to his style. However, that is nothing new for the right-hander, who has had to reinvent himself at times in the minors. Before being promoted this season, Houck replaced his changeup with a splitter and refined his attack against lefties.

Additionally, at the alternate site in Pawtucket this year, Houck elevated his arm slot. The change improved his fastball and slider as Houck has become a more complete pitcher. The change has been beneficial as his strikeout numbers have been on the rise, which was a main focus this summer. Houck is still viewed as a bullpen arm by some but is determined to stick in the rotation.

Entering next season, Houck will have plenty of opportunities to prove himself. The Boston rotation is full of question marks as Eduardo Rodriguez and Chris Sale will be returning from injuries that kept them out for all of 2020. The Red Sox also declined the club option on Martin Perez, leaving an open spot up for grabs.

While spring training is still months away, the former first-round pick has come a long way. In Houck’s first professional season, he had a 6.16 ERA through his first 11 starts. He was able to salvage his season and dominated with a 2.86 ERA down the stretch. The following season Houck was promoted to Double-A but struggled to control his change-up. Those struggles, however, have not been on display so far in his major league career. His ability to adapt and refine his mechanics have contributed to his rise and eased any concerns about his ability to succeed in the majors.

Although the Red Sox rotation struggled mightily last year, Houck provides hope that the future will be different. The Red Sox have other promising arms in the minors such as Bryan Mata, Noah Song, and Jay Groome, but Houck has set himself apart. The right-hander also received comparisons to Chris Sale last year, which isn’t a bad way to start a career.

What To Expect From Karson Kuhlman

On Tuesday morning, the Boston Bruins signed Karson Kuhlman to a two-year extension. The contract is worth $1.5 million and has a cap hit of $725,000. The extension is also a two-way deal in the first year and a one-way in the second year. With Kuhlman’s future now secured, the Bruins only remaining free agents are Zdeno Chara and Jake Debrusk. Although Kuhlman has a new deal, he still has room to improve as he tries to secure a spot on the Bruins roster.

The Bruins originally signed Kuhlman as an undrafted free agent in 2018. Since then, Kuhlman has spent time between the AHL and NHL. In 36 regular-season games for the Bruins, the Minnesota native has scored four goals and recorded seven assists. The twenty-five-year-old has also appeared in 13 playoff games and recorded three points.

Additionally, Kuhlman has not been afraid to sacrifice his body during his brief NHL career. Over the past two seasons with the Bruins, he has landed 42 hits and blocked 12 shots. Kuhlman has also been careful with the puck as he only has eight giveaways so far in his NHL career. While those qualities are critical to the Bruins organization, Kuhlman is now at a crucial point in his career.

Entering the 2021 season, Kuhlman will need to improve offensively. During Kuhlman’s NHL career, he has attempted 106 shots but only has four goals. In five games during the Bruins 2019-2020 playoff run, Kuhlman failed to record a point as the Bruins offense struggled. As they look to return to the postseason, improvement from players like Kuhlman will be essential.

As Kuhlman looks to improve his game, he will need to elevate the puck and get more chances in front of the net. In the playoffs, Kuhlman had a few good rushes but could not elevate the puck and cash in. With many prospects such as Trent Frederic awaiting their chance in Providence, the Minnesota native does not have much room for error.

When the Bruins began the 2021 campaign, Kuhlman will mostly see time in the bottom six. There will also be more pressure on the Bruins forwards to produce with the departure of Torey Krug. While Kuhlman has the speed to create scoring chances, he has to work on his finish. Although the season is still three months away the Bruins roster could look different when January comes around. That is why the next couple of months will be key for Kuhlman and he tries to secure a spot.

Prospect Profile: Oskar Steen

Coming into training camp last year, Oskar Steen was a relatively unknown name.

The Swedish native, however, was impressive and began the season in Providence with high expectations. While Steen never made an appearance in Boston, he had a solid first season in the AHL. Although the young forward is not expected to be used as a reserve when the playoffs begin, Steen will be watching closely as he prepares for the 2020-2021 season.

The Bruins selected Steen in the sixth-round of the 2016 NHL draft with the 165 overall pick. However, Steen did not join the Bruins organization right away as played in the Swedish hockey league until the 2019-2020 season. In 2018 Steen’s final year before joining Providence, he had 17 goals and 20 assists in 42 games.

In May of last year, the Bruins showed their faith in Steen as he was signed to a three-year, entry-level deal with an annual cap hit of $ 809,167. Steen joined a group of talented forwards in Providence that included Jack Studnicka and Jakob Lauko.

In Steen’s debut season with Providence, he had seven goals and 16 assists in 48 games. The Swedish native was able to land 81 shots on net and scored two powerplay goals. He showed a flair for the dramatic as the Bruins center was able to record one game-winning goal.

Although the season was cut, short Steen finished with the eight most points on the Providence roster. He was also tied for third in shorthanded goals and averaged 0.38 points a game. Although it was a down year compared to his numbers from the season before in the SHL, Steen was able to bring some of his playmaking ability to the AHL.

During preseason last year, Steen showed that he was a tenacious and hardworking player. Many people who scout of his game said he was better suited for the North American style of play. In his first AHL stint, he showed that he could adapt to the different style of play.

Over the next few years, the Bruins will have some difficult decisions due to their aging core. If Steen can impress again next year, then he will continue to rise in the Bruins system. While the Bruins have a lot of talent in Providence, Steen has held his own over the past year. The young center also played with a chip on his shoulder and showed that he won’t back down from any challenge.

While the Bruins have a bright future ahead, they are hoping that Steen can become an essential piece of it.
