Can't wait for spring training in the meantime we get to hear stories like this until there's some game action. I used to be "professional" caddy in the winter at high end golf clubs in Florida and other uppity locations (Martha's Vineyard). Well my caddy buddies still hit me up now and again especially when they get Tiger's players so yesterday my friend texts me and says he's got Verlander on the tee sheet playing as a guest of some random dude I won't name. Two weeks ago he carried for Lamont and Leyland and sent me a couple photos so hopefully I'll have a good JV story from his round. I guess he always carries for Kenny Rogers who likes to brag how he's friends with Verlander and he's always showing his text conversations with him and he saves his contact as just "V"..lol.. Apparently he plays with Fred McGriff, Smoltz, and the boxer Antonio Tarver. My favorite baseball guy I used to caddy for was John Shuerholz from Braves. Total character. Once had Obama playing and secret service was searching us and my fellow caddy got busted with his little "one-hitter". SS guy looks at him and asks, "what is this?" and he just shrugs his shoulder without saying a word. The guy shakes his head and just gave it back.
