My Take

Jason Rogers is the kind of player whose story I find more compelling than the headline stars. A small-college guy out of Columbus State who clawed his way up the minor-league ladder to actually reach the big leagues with the Brewers is no small feat, even if the cup of coffee was brief. He had legitimate right-handed power and the patient approach that scouts like, but the corner-infield logjam ahead of him is the reality for a lot of fringe major leaguers. I always root for grinders like this. Making it at all means you beat odds most people never appreciate.
