Three cheers for Ubaldo!

[ChipTait]

Ubaldo Jiminez made good on his promise to his mom to get an education.  And he graduated with honors!

From the NYT:  “”All these years later — after 12 major league seasons, a World Series appearance, a no-hitter and more than $65 million in career earnings — Jiménez, 37, kept his word and accomplished something rare among professional baseball players: He received a college degree. On Saturday, he graduated — virtually, of course — magna cum laude from the Florida Institute of Technology with a bachelor’s degree in business administration and management.“

Yep, he always seemed to me to be a very nice guy.   Wish he could have had more success pitching for us.

Good for him. Despite his struggles on the mound, I always heard Ubaldo was a good guy and good teammate. Congrats to him.

Congratulations to Ubaldo! His attitude throughout his challenging time with the Orioles always seemed amiable, responsible, and constructive. He'll have a fine career in his chosen field of business.

Congrats, I always thought Ubaldo put out a lot of effort and took too much crap, especially on fan message boards
