Here are a couple of pictures of my younger brother at spring training. He is really enjoying it and says it is actually pretty laid back. He says the pitchers are there for 3-4 hours then free the rest of the day so he has been getting in some pool time. Thought y'all might like to see who he is, hopefully he will see a few innings when they start their spring training games. May try to get to a game or two. Mechanic work with Braves pitching coach Roger McDowell  He is at the front right

That's awesome. He's living the dream of a lot of us. Congratulations to him on his hard work and determination. Those two things are what separates him from the other 99% of talented ball players.

Man, if that was my brother I'd be right there with him as much as I could. That's cool. Had some friends make it to the big time. Loved going to watch them.

'LilBoneCollector plays second base for Prattville High. With a little detail from the photos posted and some searching on google, I think his name is Mark Lamm. http://atlanta.braves.mlb.com/team/playe...amp;level='ALL'
