We will look at some more stats next week when the sample sizes get a little larger, but a few days ago the AP wrote a great article on Tyler Henley and his wife. They basically sound like the perfect couple, who have moved 9 times to follow the baseball dream. It’s a not often covered angle of the minor league players we cover so diligently. These are basically kids who have lives and concerns and worries outside of the baseball diamond. Check out the full article here and the rest after the jump.

As many of you know, Tyler Henley was an 8th round pick out of Rice in the 2007 draft. Rice players can be tough signs, but Henley signed for an above slot bonus of $150K and has since made his way onto the FR radar in a major way, ranking as our #16 prospect.
