Micah Tambur '15 Recruiting Profile

Baseball is life. I love it and have had a passion for it since I was 4 years old. The only reason I played football was to get stronger for baseball. Baseball drives me to work harder at my grades which doesn't always come easy.

I have always worked hard to improve my game. I constantly watch the MLB network to learn little tidbits to help my game. I absorb all the information at every camp and showcase that I attend. I know my skills are never good enough to not keep improving. I am driven to work hard to improve myself and my teammates.

I am driven to win. With my size, I am not asked to bunt much, but I have no problem doing it when I am asked because it is to help my team. I have played outfield, short stop, and second base when my team needs it. I may not be the fastest, but I am aggressive on the bases. I steal third base with regularity when pitchers fall asleep and I am aggressive at breaking up double plays. Sometimes a little too much.

I dream of playing in the majors someday, but I also want to broaden my knowledge if that doesn't happen. Baseball is my best chance to get the best education that my family can afford. Baseball can help me get a business degree that I can provide for my future family.

I am a smart, knowledgeable, flexible, hard working, powerful baseball player. I can be an asset to any program. I just need the opportunity.
