What a great story! Thanks for sharing all of this. The more people are open about mental illnesses like depression and anxiety, the easier it is for people to relate and help/understand their friends/family members. I appreciate your openness, and that's a great hat from a great player!

Nice! I'm a Zack Greinke fan too - I admire his longevity and eephus pitches.

I appreciate the kind words. I think each day it seems we are making more and more progress in normalizing mental health in our society. Only a few years ago my anxiety and struggles was a part of me that I was afraid to share with even the most trusted people in my life, so I’d say there’s definitely progress. Everyone has a role to play, even if it’s just lending an ear to listen or a shoulder for someone to lean on.
