Ray Liotta as Shoeless Joe: Luke Heimlich did not get drafted. Are you elated or ecstatic?

Dan Szymborski: I’m happy he didn’t get drafted as I don’t think he should see a large bonus.

Dan Szymborski: But I also think that it’s not unreasonable for him to pursue a baseball career.

Dan Szymborski: There’s a large chance that he’s a complete douchebag given his alleged actions that he pled to.

Dan Szymborski: But I also believe in criminal justice reform. At some point, when the criminal and civil recourses have gone to their end, does the person have a moral right to resume what they did in society?
2:49
Dan Szymborski: Yeah, on a level, you don’t want to see someone, if they’re a pedophile, obtain wealth, the retributive nature of all of us being there.
2:49
Dan Szymborski: And what does it say about us as a society if we’re cool with Heimlich being a sanitation worker instead? That we see certain jobs as a lower caste that he gets to be.
2:50
Dan Szymborski: Do we tell everyone in jail for something awful that when they’ve served their time, they can come to society, so long as they remain poor and do jobs that most people balk at? That seems a path for recidivism.
2:51
Dan Szymborski: It’s a very tough issue.

Dan Szymborski: Sorry to go on so much.

Dan Szymborski: I’m very torn on the whole thing

• The Cardinals finalized deals for their 35th and 36th round selections Wednesday, signing third basemen Liam Sabino, of Pittsburgh, and Cole Kreuter, of UC-Irvine, respectively. The Cardinals have signed 36 of their 41 draft picks. Three of their draft picks — Texas Tech’s Steve Gingery (fourth round), North Carolina’s Brandon Riley (14th round), and UNC’s Zack Gahagan (39th round) — remain active in the College World Series and cannot sign until eliminated.
