[Pitch Profiler] For those who don’t know how much of an athlete Joe Mauer was…

Per @247Sports, Mauer was the highest ranked football recruit in Minnesota during 2001 with a score of 0.9928. Behind him in the recruiting rankings was Larry Fitzgerald (a likely first ballot football HOFer) at 0.9703.

Not only that, but Joe Mauer is the 2nd highest ranked football recruit to come out of the state of Minnesota behind Seantrel Henderson (2010: 0.9988).

And if that isn’t enough for you, he was also all-state shooting guard for Cretin-Durham Hall.

All of that, to become a member of the @baseballhall today.

Well played, Mauer.
