Diamondbacks #2 Prospect Jasrado Chisholm this Kid Knew All Along

Its hard for persons to tell where they would be at a certain day and time in their lives.
But I am not sure Jasrado Chisholm was one of them the Kid knew all along where.
The Diamondbacks #2 Prospect always knew where he would be today; this little guy always told his coaches at the Freedom Baseball League.
That he was going play major leagues baseball and started his journey at very young at fields of Freedom Farm.
Jasrado Chisholm introduction to organized Baseball:
I first met Jasrado as a 4 year old boy in the fall of 2006, I was holding a practice of my 9/10 baseball team, the Green Jackets at the Blue Hills Softball complex. I observed Jasrado on the field opposite where I was holding practice and he was playing in a scrimmage softball game with a lady who I would come to learn in a few minutes was his grandmother Patrica Coakley and her other siblings. He was playing in slippers and I observed his raw talent throwing, running and hitting the softball. I concluded this little boy needed to get involved in organized baseball where he would have proper development.
Then I proceeded to leave my practice for a few minutes, went over and introduced myself to his guardian and gently request if they would allow me to take him and introduce him to the Freedom Farm Baseball League program. There was no hesitation on behalf of his grandmother at all, thus began the journey of me picking up Jasrado for practice from 6th street the grove and taking him to Freedom Farm to be a part of my team. This continued on for his coach pitch years and until he reached 11/12 division where was he drafted by the Conchs.
