My Take

Bradley Zimmer's career reminds me how unforgiving professional sports can be even for elite prospects. A La Jolla, California native who starred at the University of San Francisco, he was a first-round pick of the Cleveland Indians in 2014 and reached the majors as a speedy center fielder in 2017. The promise was obvious, yet the big-league grind, likely complicated by injuries, never let him fully settle in. Still, I refuse to see that as failure. Earning an MLB roster spot puts him among a tiny fraction of players ever, and I respect the talent and effort that carried him to that level.
