This thread is for those of you who have thought about a former baseball player and now wonder what they are up to.
Ideally, the guys on the baseball board will help you look for info on this player and maybe provide any facts that they have heard, read, or seen about said player.
Likewise, if you already have some info you would like to share about a player in the same "disappearing" situation, you can share that as well. In fact, this post falls under this scenario.
This thread is not just about sharing information on players from yesterday, but also bringing back memories, sharing memories, and also giving us all more useless knowledge about baseball that isn't too helpful in the real world.
My inspiration comes form 24's thread, "What Happened to Ben Grieve."
================================================== =======================
The first player I bring to you is a fellow known as Bo Hart. Bo Hart was called up to the St. Louis Cardinals in 2003 to fill in for Fernando Vina after he stumbled into first base and rolled his hamstring.
Hart was a sensation in St. Louis and became an instant fan favorite. He really only played for the 2nd half of that season, but left a huge mark on the organization and joined the pantheon of scrappy ball players that we all love.
The last I heard of him (before September 14th) he was trying to make the big club again by becoming a switch hitter. He never made it to the show again, but you can still see many a Bo Hart shirseys throughout Busch Stadium on any game day.
Interview by the guys at Joesportsfan.com, it starts at the 23:45 mark.
