My name is Matthew Schoettler, and I was former editor of Grading on the Curve and am now currently writing for Call to the Pen. I enjoy writing about sports, preferably baseball, but I am an avid fan of all sports. I recently moved to the Denver area, but I look forward to provide baseball prospect news to the news-hungry baseball fans.
