Alex Vesia was a 17th Round Draft Pick out of a D2 called Cal State East Bay, and before that he was a 150-pound college freshman who couldn't squat 135. Now, he's a star reliever for the Los Angeles Dodgers with a fastball eclipsing 97 MPH and has one of the highest K/9 in Major League Baseball. His story is absolutely remarkable, and anyone who's looking to get some motivation for chasing their dreams is gonna love this episode. Hope you enjoy! 💯

This is exactly why Vesia is my favorite. Not only is he a super nice and humble guy, but he knows what it's like to have to grind to earn every bit of the success that he's achieved. Good podcast, Dan, and I can't wait to see more!

A crazy thing that matches with this is that once I went to a dodgers game and I was waiting in the bullpen and saw him walk by and I asked fr a ball and he said once the game ended he would throw us one and he threw us two because there was two of us it was very nice of him

My young son stays after Dodgers games looking for balls and autographs. Almost all the players immediately leave to go change and shower....except Alex. He has so many visitors it's crazy! You can tell how much he enjoys playing in MLB and just wants to share the experience with everyone he's ever known. It's fun to watch.

Seeing him succeed is so cool and unreal to see because I caught this guy in high school in the off-season’s. He was a couple years ahead of me so we didn’t actually go to school together but we went to the same high school and I would catch him in the summer during summer ball at our high school Steele Canyon, and to see him A make the big leagues and B play on my favorite team the Dodgers is absolutely nuts and such a cool feeling to know Him

Definitely an exercise in preserving and not giving up. Some players do not mature physically until after college. Scouts now a days miss that. More to Judging talent. Seeing potential is a true gift.

What's really crazy is his walk rate- in 2019 at Class A he walked 4.8 batters per 9 innings.. then upon promotion to High-A he walked just 1 batter (0.5 per 9) in 18.2 innings then another promotion to AA walked just 1 batter again in 16 innings (0.6 per 9).. that's such a drastic improvement & mid season is nuts..
