Rich Dorman has seen much of the country in his bid to make it to the major leagues.His six-year pro career has taken him to Fishkill, N.Y.; Appleton, Wis.; Charleston, S.C.; and San Antonio.
But none of that compares to his experience playing for Cardenales de Lara in the Venezuelan Winter League. Dorman, who was signed by the Mariners as a free agent in 2002, was 7-7 this past season for Class AAA Tacoma. Now a free agent again, Dorman, a 28-year-old right-hander from Medford, Ore., went to Venezuela to try to impress the Mariners and any other major-league teams that might be watching.
The story notes that Rich is writing a diary of his time in Venezuela for the Ratinier web site, but this link HERE is the only entry that I could find. It was written on October 10.
Good stuff from a former Rattler at both links.
