Today I enjoyed the article in the Savannah Morning News, "Zimmerman vows he'll be better in 2010." He was a baseball star at the University of Virginia and on draft day of 2005, Zimmerman signed a 2.975 million dollar contract with the Washington Nationals.
I had the opportunity to watch Zimmerman play four games with the Savannah Sand Gnats in 2005. I remember he hit line drives to the power alleys and all over the field. In the four home games he played, he hit 2HR, 2doubles, 1triple and batted .471. He fielded all balls hit to him at third base and he had a strong throwing arm.
Because of his strong showing in Savannah, he was promoted to double A and then promoted to the Nationals during the 2005 season.
