Need 10 Baseball Bats!

I saw this story on the news this morning.  It seems that the Calgary Vipers of the Golden Baseball League traded John Odom up for 10 baseball bats, that’s funny.  Here’s the kicker, the player John Odom stated “I don’t really care, it’ll make a better story if I make it to the big leagues.”  He’s right, it sure would make for a great story.  Here’s another kicker.  This wasn’t the first time Calgary has ever come up with an off the wall trade.  They once tried to get another player for 1,500 seats for their stadium.  This just shows how hard it is for these players to get to the big show.
