Meet Anthony — a.k.a. Ant Man.
Built like a tank. Swings like a wrecking ball. And yeah, he means business.
No days off, always leveling up. Ant holds it down on both sides of the diamond, but there’s something about that lefty swing that screams future power threat — maybe even launching bombs out of Chavez Ravine one day... just saying.
But it’s not just the tools — he brings the intangibles, too. Hustle. Positivity. Teammate energy. And always good for a laugh in the dugout.
We’re pumped to have him riding with Team 33. Let’s fly.
