	Mike Schmidt - BR Bullpen
		Mike Schmidt played high school and college baseball in Ohio and was a second-round pick of the Philadelphia Phillies in the 1971 amateur draft.
		Due in part to a rotator cuff injury, Schmidt notably declined at the plate during the 1988 season and ultimately missed the last third of the season due to the injury.
		In terms of playing style, the most indelible image of Schmidt is probably his handling of chopped ground balls on the artificial turf at the Vet and other NL parks: charging furiously from third, barehanding the ball on its descent, and whipping it to first base in one motion.

		Former Philadelphia Phillie third baseman Mike Schmidt's Hall of Fame career was fueled by an unshakable work ethic and an intelligence that allowed him to sift through numerous hitting theories and choose the elements that best complemented his physical abilities.
		Schmidt combines elements of three major systems into one: the early weight-shift system (think of films of Ty Cobb); the Charlie Lau weight shift; and the Ted Williams rotation.
		The analogy Schmidt uses to differentiate between the shift and rotation systems is the difference between a shot-putter and a javelin thrower.
