Since retiring from professional baseball, I have found new passions that I would like to share with you. Many friends, fans, and family members have asked me to make a space where I can share my ideas, experiences, and dreams together, so here it is!
It is a mix of life, baseball, and business. After my baseball career, I first found my entrepreneurial spirit by partnering in business with a junior high school friend of mine. I then found my literary voice from an opportunity to write a New York Times online column called "Heading Home". This site brings all this to you.
I hope you will be an active participant in making this home inviting by sending me suggestions as to how to improve your experience here. Please sign up for a customizable newsletter to receive emails on new content and upcoming events.
There are monkeys on your back and then there are gorillas, and when things are particularly bad, you have an entire zoo. But once in a while, something happens that sends them all back to their natural habitat.
Doug is working with Baseball Factory as a special consultant. This "Ask Doug"
blog answers questions from parents and their high school student athletes to
help provide insight into the balance between academics and pursuing a
baseball future.
