The best employees know their merchandise. Logan Morris might not be able to quote a value for every baseball card, but he can probably give a pretty accurate assessment of the players on the front.
Morrison, a 23-year-old rookie with the Florida Marlins isn’t too cool for school when it comes to the baseball card market.
In fact, the Kansas City native spent his last off-season working at Bonanza Sports Cards in Jupiter, Florida. While spending a minor league season there, the guy they call “LoMo” did an autograph signing in the shop. One thing led to another and soon he was ringing up customers and talking baseball as an employee.
It kept him in Florida as he prepared for what he hoped was a big league call-up. It came in July and Morrison hasn’t disappointed.
According to this story, he didn’t disappoint as an employee either.
