The legend of Connor Joe — CoJo for short — luxuriates by the day.
Bud Black likes to go with the flow. Let you be you. To a point.
“The hair is more than just letting it grow and trying to be like Charlie ,” Joe told The Post recently. “Obviously, going through the chemotherapy, I lost my hair, so I was bald. “So he kind of learned how to deal with those things, he learned how that it’s not OK to quit, and that you persevere. And that sometimes the worst things in your life end up being the best things in your life. All of this … that he had to go through, from high school all through the minor leagues, have prepared him for this day. And that’s why he’s thriving.”
The dude is super-selective on pitches on the outer part of the plate. And he absolutely demolishes mistakes, especially ones made from the middle part of the zone and inward.Andy Cross, The Denver Post “The pandemic slowed a lot of players in his sort of timeframe … Now that everything’s fairly back to normal, he’s a couple years older, a couple years wiser. There’s a tremendous will and desire.”To make up for lost time. To be a living, thriving example of hard work and perseverance in the face of ridiculous odds. And the cruelest of diseases.
“I wanted to just let him know how much he’s impacted my life in the short time I’ve known him,” Joe said. “My heart goes out to him and his family and everything they’re going through. But I wanted him to know how many lives he’s impacted. The way he’s fought, his legacy is going to live on.”And, at times, it’s broken it.
