The Cubs organization recently announced the acquisition of sought after prospect, John C. Birtch, to a multi year deal. Details were sketchy, but it is rumored through his agent, Papa, that it included an immediate signing bonus of a Mickey Mouse pancake at the Good Egg. Also, in the package will be McDonald Happy Meals throughout the extended 4 week season.
Birtch, drafted out of Desert Springs Preparatory Elementary School, is a highly prized utility player who will be featured at his home park, The Miracle League, started by former Diamondback major league pitcher, Dan Harren. The Miracle League, located in east Scottsdale, is for players with special needs. Each player is assigned a game "buddy" allowing parents and fans to cheer from the stands. If you crave great baseball, check it out. Games are Saturday mornings.
