Help a Young ballplayer with what they need

Baseball season is coming up quickly, Spring Training is beginning later this month. In March of last year, the baseball season was put on hold due to the Coronavirus. The Minor League  was cancelled shortly after the announcement of the Major League season's postponement. Many players wondered what they would do when they heard the news. One of the admirable efforts I noticed during these times was from Emily Waldon, a baseball writer on Twitter and on The Athletic. She brought attention to the plight of the minor leaguer and the situations they faced with not knowing what their job statuses were at the time, and helped connect Minor League players to companies and people who were looking to hire for the time being. Another admirable effort I ran across was Adopt a Minor Leaguer, which pairs Minor League baseball players with people who can help them out with what they and their families (if they have them) might need.
