i think he could have made it to the pros easily. If i remember well, during the end of his short career he started putting up really good numbers. And it's quite impressive considering he quit basketball during his prime out of nowhere, and a few weeks later only started his baseball career and was getting better by the day. Knowing Jordan's mindest and work ethic, it's clear he could have become a great baseball player. But it's good that he returned to the NBA, which he should have never left.
I am have no doubt that he would have developed into an All Star Player with a .300 plus batting average and a perennial gold glove winner! But for MJ to become the GOAT of baseball and dominate the world of baseball the way he dominated over the world of basketball would have been a very tall task!!!! He would have to hit more home runs than Barry Bonds, get more hits than Pete Rose, steal more bases than Ricky Henderson, play better outfield than Willie Mays, better infield than Brooks Robinson and better back catcher than Josh Gibson and hit better than Josh hit!!! That is a lot to accomplish even for MJ!!!!! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GR188tDl37g.html
Maybe I mean it's clearly it's clear he just wanted to experience something different than something he's been doing since little. Even if he was great at basketball if he quit I don't know we're just simply means he was getting bored of it it probably felt like he didn't want to look back in his life and that's all he had to his name. If the grammar is bad I'm using speech to text it doesn't get all my words right
Wtf are y'all on? .202 avg, 30/48 stolen bases, literally caught half the time. 100+ strikeouts, .269 slugging. No improvement and didn't belong on a field, he took someone's spot bc of who he was
He didn't fail bro. His stats were really good in minors for someone who hasn't played organized baseball in a decade. He had a great average at .300 in the minors. He would of been a pretty good major league player. Then the lockout came. Hardly a failure bro. Hardly. Edit: this title is misgiving. Idk how anyone could call him a failure at baseball. It's more of a, "what if". It's a success in my opinion.
Nah, that’s a lie. He was caught gambling on basketball games and was suspended. They didn’t want it to make it seem like the league was rigged, so they compromised. He was a gambling addict.
@@roems6396 MJ had gambling habits that's true. But it's also true that MJ's father wanted him to see MJ play baseball. Unfortunately, his father didn't see MJ playing baseball.
Michael Jordan in Baseball reminds me of oh idk CM Punk in UFC or Ronda Rousey in WWE or that one time Conor McGregor got schooled by Floyd Mayweather Jr in boxing ... either very entertaining (in CM Punk's or Conor McGregor's case) or cringe (in Ronda Rousey's case) to watch, but in the end just a sick joke not meant to be taken seriously
Things take time. Sports take practice. He probably would've made a good ball player. He walked away from basketball for a little bit and he came back and wasn't very good in 95. But time and practice he became great again.
Michael Jordan was a STAIN to Baseball: the guy who owned the very same team as the Chicago Bulls took him in. If anyone would've pulled the same nepotism and shady politics thing in basketball, Jordan would've TAKEN IT PERSONAL (like the pampered crybaby that he's known for), the disrespect everyone in Baseball must've felt: all those years of dedication and hard work while Jordan was like "YAWN IMMA BORED OF BASKETBALL IMMA PLAY ME SUM BASEBALL NOW" ... DESPICABLE!!!
@@blackentertainmenthistory8601 ??? Are you stupid? "Voice a little monotone". You took that as insulting him? I imagine you at some party and someone talks about your outfit and you going "You have insulted my culture and everything I represent in life. You have no place to be talking about people around you and being condescending to others." and then you stab them. Chill tf out its a youtube comment about how someone can do better in entertaining viewers
Jordan was one of the greatest basketball players of all time. His baseball career was a surreal joke. He struck out over 100 times and batted .207 at AA ball. That is pretty crappy. I never bought the media's "Michael's dream of playing baseball" crap anyway. MJ was just being indulged by Jerry Reinsdorf who owned both the Bulls and the White Sox. It was funny watching the media in Chicago pretend like MJ was an "amazing" player. The only thing that was good was that MJ only played a year and then came back to the NBA and was awesome.
"Jordan was known to take hours upon hours of extra practice" ... YES, AS HE SHOULD, AS EVERY BASEBALL PLAYER HAS DONE THE SAME WAY HE DID FOR BASKETBALL ... AND HE STILL WASN'T GOOD ... "by the end of the season he showed great improvement" so you're saying when you are terrible and you practice over and over and over you tend to improve overtime? WOW GEE MAN I DIDN'T KNOW THAT TX FOR THE TIP CAPTAIN OBVIOUS LOL and it's not very hard to improve from practically NOTHING ...
The real reason MJ “failed” at baseball was because his spiritual journey in life led him to baseball for other reasons deeper than even his own father. Not talking the NBA stories either. Follow me on this one. MJ played for the Birmingham Barons ‘94-95. For those that don’t know, in a past life, MJ was actually Gucci Mane’s father. And he’s originally from Birmingham. And Gucci Mane’s real father, Ralph Dudley, in past lives was a huge arch enemy to MJ. During the same time MJ was in Birmingham, GM was having hard times with his father in Atlanta. Spiritually, MJ was in Bham to reconnect with a long lost son, who also was experiencing father issues at the same time, basically. Jordan’s own father obviously was the biggest catalyst for the baseball journey…that and other reasons. But from a spiritual perspective it was never truly about him being the next Bo Jackson(another Bessemer native) or Deion Sanders. MJ was spiritually reconnecting to a place that, even though he didn’t grow up in Alabama, represented his past in a profound way.
He didn't suck, he just stopped before he could develop further. I'd love to see the high school heroes putting him down jump straight into AA baseball and hit .202 with 3 homeruns and 51 RBIs. He was right to leave and go back to basketball though.
He failed because the people on his team were being rude to him he had to face alot of jealousy from his baseball team guys, but MJ was self confident he would have made it big time in baseball if he stayed a few years.
@@blackentertainmenthistory8601 delusional. He bought the team a new bus, jealous? Maybe considering that a .202 hitter gets praised for hitting an infield single or getting caught stealing 50% of the time
He failed because he did not work hard enough and he did not have confidence in himself to suceed in baseball, MJ was hard working if he worked really hard he would have been good at baseball won some chanpionships.
