The Grind

A lot of times you'll hear people say, “It’s a long season.” While that sounds like a truism, this book by Barry Svrluga is an interesting look at what that long season is like for everyone involved – from well-paid superstars to sleep-deprived scouts, from GMs to players’ wives. The book focuses on the Washington Nationals; oddly enough, Bryce Harper garners little more than a footnote.
