Aaron Laffey

Aaron Laffey is the kind of ballplayer I find easy to respect. A left-handed pitcher from Cumberland, Maryland, he debuted with Cleveland in 2007 and then bounced through the Mariners, Yankees, Blue Jays, Mets, and Rockies before stepping away in 2018. That itinerary is not failure; it is durability. Stardom in one uniform is one story, but earning a roster spot city after city, proving yourself again and again, demands a quieter toughness that I value just as much. He kept his glove packed and kept getting outs. To a journeyman who spent over a decade in the big leagues, I tip my cap.
