Jesus v. Baseball

The lord giveth and the lord taketh. Just ask Rocco Baldelli or Corey Lidle. One day you're on top of the world, and then the next you face the crippling mortality of man.

Today, the lord took another victim of America's greatest past time, Grant Desme. Just a few months removed from a breakout minor league season where he hit .288/.365/.568 (.933 OPS) with 31 HR in A-ball and lit up the AFL, Desme is hanging up his cleats and picking up his bible. Goodbye baseball, hello priesthood. Just reaffirmation of a motto we've previous asserted here at Game Of Inches: "Jesus saves."

(Note: I am not, nor am trying to, make fun of the death of any major league baseball player)
