SARASOTA, Fla. — Hey, did you hear the one about the baseball prospect who shot himself in the leg right before spring training and couldn’t play?
Bryce Brentz was the punch line of a lot of bad jokes in January when the handgun he was cleaning accidentally discharged and a bullet passed through his left leg. But there was nothing funny about the missed opportunity.

If I had to play baseball for a living, I'd consider shooting myself too.
