The Writer’s Coin

Rarely do I recommend a specific article or blog post that I find out there, but it seems anytime Michael Lewis writes a new one, I’m doing that very thing. He’s just that good. This one is one near and dear to my heart—it’s about baseball in Cuba. Lewis actually goes out there and watches some games, sees some prospects, and talks to some former legends. It’s kind of sad that so many of these players, who would have otherwise become legendary, are living an anonymous existence on the island.

The story of the agent is also pretty sad. He’s clearly on his side during the whole story, and at the end of it so will you. We’re talking Lewis here, he’s that good.
