Thursday Night Open Thread

Here’s a pretty article from Bryan Hoch on Chase Whitley, who spends his offseasons working as a baseball instructor for kids back home in Alabama. Whitley started doing it as a way to make extra money during the winter, but he continues to do it today because of the relationships he’s built with the kids and families. He even converted his family’s barn into a full-fledged baseball training facility. Pretty neat story.

This is your open thread for the night. Both the Rangers and Islanders are playing and there’s some college hoops on as well. Talk about those games, Whitley’s offseason work, or anything else right here.
