Everyone grows up with aspirations of playing in the big leagues, and Atlanta Braves pitcher Michael Kohn made good on his promise.
Kids all over the world dream of becoming important people in the world but not everyone is able to reach their goals and aspirations. That doesn’t mean everyone fails in succeeding in what they want to do in life, as Michael Kohn stands as an example of what happens when you work hard, play even harder and commit to what your heart desires.
Kohn, who recently signed with the Atlanta Braves, revealed that he wrote a letter as 10 years old kid saying he would one day play baseball for the Atlanta Braves.
Needless to say, that dream has come true.

Now Michael Kohn didn’t end up playing third base or shortstop like he wrote, but his dream of playing for the Atlanta Braves has indeed come true.
The right-handed pitcher has received an invitation to spring training where he will compete for a spot on the roster. With his aspirations coming to fruition, Kohn will have a great deal of support on his way there.
With Atlanta making a bevy of moves in the offseason and continuing to make more moves to get younger and free up some payroll, the South Carolina native will have a shot at finding his way onto the Braves roster.
