Re: Offerman sued for minor league bat attack
Haha.
I grew up with John Nathans and played little league with him on my Dad's team. His father is a prominent attorney in my howntown.
He's right to sue, because he was pretty messed up, but the guy was a minor league journeyman that wouldn't have made $200,000 the rest of the his baseball career, let alone, $4.8 million.
