When you elect to don #6, you’re telling the world that you appreciate passion, energy, and a can-do attitude. You’re saying that you aren’t afraid of embarassement, pain, or hefty emergency room bills. You’re saying that you don’t wait around for things to happen; you make your own destiny.

It wasn’t just that he could play anywhere, it was also that he brought intensity that inspired action in others. It was obvious to me that finding him playing time was essential to the team’s success. In fact, it was so obvious to me that I couldn’t believe it when they didn’t manage to find him that playing time to start the 2005 season; it was like they’d forgotten everything they’d … [visit site to read more]

I know none of the Reds personally, but I’ve come close to meeting Freel twice, and those meetings provide the fodder for this section.

    The more recent story occurred at Spring Training when I procured Freel’s autograph on a t-shirt. You can find that story here.

He attended Englewood High School in Jacksonville and Tallahassee Community College. He lives in Jacksonville. He is married to Christie and on January 1, 2004 the couple had their first child, a girl named Ava.

    Freel has always been a daredevil and is well-known for the time he jumped off a third-story motel balcony into a swimming pool.

Freel became a staple for the injury-ridden Reds in 2004 by bouncing among second base, shortstop, third base, and the outfield. Freel is the emergency backup catcher and would certainly take the mound if the need presented itself.

    Wherever he’s playing, Freel has a reckless disregard for his own safely and will fling himself into walls, … [visit site to read more]
