Andy Neary reflects on his short minor-league baseball career, arguing that mindset—not physical attributes—determined his outcomes. He recounts lasting "a couple years" in the minors, mentions his size (5'9", 175 lbs) as a common excuse, and stresses waking up each day determined to give everything and "not leaving a damn thing on the field."

"A couple years" (as stated by the speaker)

I only lasted a couple years in minor league baseball when I truly believe had I lived up to my full potential, I would have played a lot longer. And who knows where it would have gone at that point.
It'S easy to use the excuse. I was 5 foot 9, I was 175 pounds. I didn't have much of a chance to begin with. But let's be honest. I mean, there's plenty of pitchers now who've made it all the way to the big league ranks that are undersized, that don't throw overly hard, but it's their mindset. It's that living up, waking up every day and not leaving a damn thing on the field.
