"I've heard some horror stories with host families..."
Don't think you're going to get off that easy, Matt!
Vlad Impala like what kind of stories
I’m thinking of the movie “summer catch” lol
@@michaelwilson1419cucumber salad?
"I've heard some horror stories with host families" Love to see a video on that!
My goal in life is to see all of MLB stadiums. I don’t have a whole lot to finish up. I did go to SD for my first time and went to see them play the Rockies. Petco is a beautiful stadium. I absolutely loved it out in SD. Downtown was hopping after the game too. I was only In SD for a night so I didn’t explore a whole lot.
What is the worst stadium you have been to?
Alexander kai i would have to say Tropicana in Tampa. I live in Orlando Florida and it’s such a pain in the ass to get to as well. It’s a complete dump. Run down stadium that never gets people in the seats.
Brandon Bevan have you been to camden yards?
Awesomej 9 I have! I was like 10 or 11 when I went. Was a huge fan of Jay Gibbons at the time. Bought his player shirt. So early 2000’s, Like 2000-2002. I remember really enjoying Camden yards and the whole outfield block they have out there too. I want to go back out there ASAP
You should make a video on the stories you’ve heard about bad host families.
Sports Management grad here. the "rule" he is speaking to about team funded accommodations is in the CBA (Collective Bargaining Agreement) or the Players association bylaws. Every league has a "rule per say for like players traded or per transaction accommodations. Thanks always for the awesome videos where we can live vicariously through your experience.
Do guys in the minors get starstruck when they play with major stars from the bigs that go down for rehab?
lovelessissimo he answered that about 2 months back!
lovelessissimo whats with the junk questions
@@weesebowski8651I guess I missed that one.
@@fucuszullanti7877 Oh you must know all the best questions. Go ahead. Let's hear them. Since my questions are junk, yours must be gold.
We're waiting, Golden Boy.
lovelessissimo I got a good question, why does this guy say his own name 10 times in every video?
Thanks for making all these videos, Matt. I'm a Boston kid living in Nashville and MLB is nowhere on the map down here. Finding your channel got me back into the game and I haven't been this excited for a upcoming season since the early 2000s.
Keep up the good work!
Cardinals are decently close
@@Preppy-Sadie1y2k Yeah Cards and Braves are both about 4 hours away. I was saying more in terms of media coverage and everyday convo. MLB is pretty low down on the totem pole.
@@andydoesntknow gotcha
Vandy is there may not be mlb but still baseball
@@themarcel6.6 The Nashville Sounds are here too. They even started drawing decent crowds once they built their new stadium.
I can definitely get my baseball fix down here, it's just that MLB isn't on most people's radar.
Thanks for being such a class act, Matt! How did you like playing and living here in San Antonio?
I would have done the same thing as you in San Diego! You made it to The Show so you had to live it up while you were there!
What was spring training like?
Is there a difference in the locker room atmosphere in spring training compared to the regular season?
Do veteran players who have guaranteed roster spots not take spring training seriously?
Do younger guys treat spring training as if each game was game 7 of the world series?
Could you take your jersey home if you felt like it and were you charged if you did so?
if you like learning about spring training there’s a podcast called Talkin’ baseball where they asked Trevor Plouffe whose a former big leaguer about spring training and you’ll learn the answer to your question. hope this helps!
@@gamingmaniac89 that podcast is the reason why I am asking about spring training. thanks anyways
I just put two and two together and realized that I probably saw you play in Portland. All this time I forget they were a part of the Padres system.
Great to hear the name of Chad Huffman who was also a great punter for TCU. I got his autograph when he played for Portland. I enjoy your videos.
I was a long time AAA Season Ticket Holder here in Nashville, then the Brewers. Front row, right next to the dugout. I had several players that lived in my Apartment Complex. One of the Coaches was actually my next door neighbor. My girlfriend at the time, now wife and I would often have him over for dinner on off days, or rain out. He loved it. I got to know a lot of the guys and they would often get an apartment together, share expenses and if someone went up or down the next guy would just fill the spot. Getting to see and understand that side of the business was eye opening. It's a business..and its not for everyone. It's a tough life.
Up next on 'It never happened'...
Peter White Are you implying I made this up..?
Don't want to give it away, but the Omni in San Diego has that direct walkway bridge to Petco. You don't even really have to go outside. That's the one right by the Convention Center Green Line trolley.
in tv show 'pitch' pods playas were shown livin in dat hotel ...
Hey Matt, question maybe to answer in your next video, How did you juggle workouts in your free time, compared to your training for games? Did you ever voluntary go to the gym during the season in your free time to get stronger? How sore were you?
Thanks!!
That’s cool that you ain’t bitter and moved on and doing all this great stuff now. Thanks for the vids.
I didn’t make the cut for my high school team when this video came out
Fluffy Toast tuff. what team varsity or jv
Babiisosa jv
I am not a baseball player but I just moved into an apartment building right across the street from a minor league baseball park and I am sure some of the tenants will be players on the team.
Can you do on thing on just host family’s and what it’s like staying with one
I Live in Lake Elsinore, Would go to storm games a lot. Cool seeing you play.
Did you ever get to see John Olerud play? He went straight from the draft to play in the majors
with the blue jays. Probably one of the best hitters of all time.
ljw3491 no, he retired in 05. Matt was drafted in 06 I think.
ljw3491 John Olerud isn’t even close to one of the best hitters of all time.
LOL...about host family! I have been one of them host families for Kane County Cougars! 12 yrs. Had a few bad apples.. could write a book! One time, Oakland - parent club, player was sent back to short season, stiffed me for rent...never paid, got toward end of the season, the A's front office was contacted, and they sent me the amount owned to me, players' paycheck was garnished....never played ball after that season. The Dbacks now are parent club, and few years ago I was on business trip, club was in a home series, cleaning lady to the house notified me she found a bag of weed on end table...one call in the early evening to the front office, after game, mgr and coaches were told...I told the staff I want them out of the house that night....it was done! And they made sure I was paid the rent due. Rent was like $185/month.
Keep up the work matt love the videos 👍🏻
My fiance and I stayed at a Red Roof Inn affiliate in Richmond, VA a couple years ago. Burnt out lights, peeling wallpaper, cigarette burns on the sheets and I'm pretty sure someone was getting murdered next door. Never again.
I've heard bad things about Red Roof Inns in general.
I got the opportunity to be in a host family 3 times in Germany , Switzerland and Poland and it's fun ngl
Do they still have tryouts? If they do how do you find out about them?
The Fisher Cats AA Toronto Blue Jays and especially visiting teams stay at the Comfort Inn Manchester NH right across the street from me.
Where all the hookers are.
Grazie Paesano!🇮🇹
Did you ever think about or were approached about playing winter ball? Like Mexican, Dominican, venezuela leagues?
During your time in the padre organization, did you ever feel as though they were behind the curve relative to other organizations in terms of prospect development?
GorillaRadio88 They were not behind the curve in prospect development. Their problem was two fold: One, horrendous draft decisions like Matt Bush and Donavan Tate, maybe two of the worst top draft picks in the history of baseball. Two, they have traded away prospects over the years like Rizzo, Shane Victorino, and good lord, Trea Turner, to name just a few. Just some really bad decision making over the years by various management. No continuity, no stability, and incompetent leadership.
Speaking Truths No arguments from me on any of that stuff. Hoping they’re on the right track now, though.
Matt, how does one one sign up to be a host family?
So only a certain level of league has host families and the teams in that league would want those families to be in very close proximity to their home ballpark. Not sure where you live but if you live really close (same city or at least same county) to a minor league team contact them and find out. If you don’t live that close to one you’re pretty much out of luck
Steven heckert. Thank you for your response. I own property in Murrieta and Rancho Cucamonga. Not too far from two SIngle A ballparks.
@@dodgervision1 absolutely contact the teams. usually der is a wait list. gud luk ...
what ended your career?
As far as the hotels go, or the actual hotels without a kitchen or do you get put in two or do you have the option to go to an Extended Stay with a kitchen? What do you do for food when you’re up at the hotel?
Always enjoy the videos. What are your thoughts on the MLB restructuring the minor league system?
You say you get paid $2,000/day. How does it work when you get called up. I believe you made league minimum. So how do they change your paycheck? Do you get the full 500k even if you get called up for only a few months?
Sawyer Rolland I believe you get payed for the days you are in the MLB. Let’s say you spend 30 days in the MLB. You would get 60,000 dollars.
How would you go up to a player in the minor leagues to get them to do a private signing at their hotel after the game or before they go to the stadium and were you ever approached from someone asking you
Hi Matt. Question. From College to Minors, to Majors..... were you ever subjected to a team curfew? I have heard some very funny stories of friends of mine who played, and ways they ‘broke the rules’ but didnt get caught. Please let us know. Thanks! -Adam
isn't 10 bucks a day (300 a month) like all the money?? what did you use to buy food?
I think he said before that they get meal money and usually work in the off season.
The Omni I’m a Padres fan
Unless you’re Mike Trout and then you buy a $9.5 million dollar mansion in Newport Beach complete with pool and a premium view of the harbor.
Do you now watch, or not, MLB games on television, and if so do you have any favourite teams?
How often is the general manager around with the team?
I didn’t see them a lot. Every now and then in the clubhouse
Is throwing around 85 in senior year fine if you throw a mid-high 70 that’s a killer breaking ball?
Wild - AgarioYT if your fastball is 85 you want your curveball at around 68 and slider mid 70s
Can you post what an MLB contract looks like but not your private information like SS number and that kind of stuff?
That might not be legal.
Trenton Pottruff That’s why I am asking if he can. He would know .
lidsman22 he’s not a lawyer. He probably wouldn’t know
@@davids6898 ok
Here's a link to an Business Insider article from 2011 that shows a Uniform Player Contact.
www.businessinsider.com/uniform-major-league-baseball-contract-2011-4
Do you let the landlord that you're a baseball player and you don't know how long you'll live in the apartment?
What do you do when the game is over? Do you have to wait for all the fans to leave before you can leave?
Nah you can leave whenever. Most relax for a bit and then shower. Some lift or stretch.
Crickets? You were spooked by crickets? LOL
I dunno, man. I laughed too, but then I realized it would creep me out if they were crawling in through the pipes.
Did you check out of the hotel across from Petco went you went on the road or did you stay checked in?
Uncle Stinky
Think he wanted to pack his shit up all the time?
Hey Matt why so many players, huge players, like Kyle blanks, you mentioned him in this video, get hurt all the time? Is it maybe they played many sports as kids? Or what you think
daniel martín benavides salazar If I had to guess, it’s either HGH or they’re simply too big from working out too much. There’s also less of a desire to play hurt than there was 50 years ago.
Would you be willing to share some of the horror stories you heard of some host families?
Haha some might not be suitable for YT
I understand. .
U can’t just let that horror story comment slide Matt
Crickets really suck. Get them in the house every fall now up here in Vermont. I hate'm!
What happens if you have a cat or a dog, can you bring your pet with you?
Just guessing, but if you're what Mike described, more or less rapidly moving through the system, you don't have the time and attention to spare to give a pet. The arrangement he described re: the long-term "star"-type player who can afford a home in the MLB city, would be the same for who can (and should) get a pet.....when you're sure you can offer some long-term stability for the pet.
4:41 Are you to that one tall hotel room where theres a bar nearby the trolly station
Easiest commute ever.
How do players take you seriously when you’re more out for building a personal brand than their personal future?
How was Elsinore? Lol
Seems like a bunch of leases you have to break. That’s unfortunate
Just a guess, but if some motels/hotels and/or apts in certain towns and cities keep having ballplayers from the local MiLB team come through, they might make allowances regarding amount of time they're beholden to stay, and cut 'em some slack regarding leases. Would be nice if they could.
bradness you’re probably correct.
I’m willing to bet that there is an understanding reached when it comes to leasing, and their is likely a list of “approved” apartments in every club house.
I can speak in fact for sports but being a navy brat I know that every military town has a housing industry that makes allowances for military families in that regard. I imagine something similar to that has appeared organically in every pro sports town
What happened to your career? You've got one line in baseball reference (maybe two). 501 PA .193 BA Matt C'mon man. Injuries, skills? You teach ball to kids which is great. You have the gift of gab that is a great tool, obviously that is working for you, and you haven't been sued by the Astros for your logo yet, although I would be careful especially now. Baseball is a super difficult sport to make pro. I've had several family members make minors and go no further. At least they gave you a shot. You should talk about the leap from AAA to MLB it's differences in skill/talent & why guys just can't take that next step. Although I have seen atrocious players playing in the bigs (usually wearing Met uniforms) because they can play one side of the ball, but couldn't hit a beach ball with an ore.
LS
They expect you to find an apartment on your $11,000 a year salary?
Trenton: Roommates.
Make a horror story host family video
Do host families get paid ?
Until he answers (if he does), I'll bring in a guess: I'm saying no, 'cause if they did, they'd have a nightmare scenario of who and how to select a family, and a similar logistical nightmare of paperwork, liabilities, tax liability, etc. The family merely donates their home, and whatever else they deem comfortable, although the player will likely take care of most of his food needs.
In exchange, the family gets the cool stories of housing a ballplayer, and if the guy busts out in The Show, bragging rights of having him once having stayed with them!
@@bradsmack1 Thanks for answering.
I’m sorry you had to be in lake Elsinore, that city is a dump but the stadium is decent
Repent from your sins before it’s too late to repent
SCO EUGENE EMERALDS
This is the first time I've heard someone call roaches, crickets.
They may have actually been crickets. With Fangs.
Not to sound like a hater but wasn’t this guy in the majors for like a week? Why can’t we get an ACTUAL mlb player to talk about this kind of stuff.
First
