My Take
Josh Vitters is, to me, one of baseball's most poignant what-ifs. A celebrated high school prospect out of Anaheim, drafted high and tagged as the Cubs' third baseman of the future, he reached the majors in 2012 and then it was essentially over. I find his story more moving than many Hall of Fame careers, because it captures how brutally the gap between promise and performance can close at the top level. The weight of expectation crushes more talent than failure ever does. Yet he stood where millions only dream of standing, and that single MLB season earns my quiet, genuine respect.
