Mohr's journey begins

Elida's Brooks Mohr begins his baseball trek next month.
Mohr, a 27th-round draft pick of the Seattle Mariners, will head off to the instructional league at Peoria, Ariz., in a few weeks.
From there, he will be sent to either Peoria or Class A Everett (Wash.) next spring.
The 6-foot-3 right-hander has the physical talent. His delivery is smooth and effortless.
The ball explodes out of his hand, with his fastball hitting the radar gun between 89 and 92 mph.
It's the mental side of the game that Mohr, and young players like him, must learn.
It's adjusting to life thousands of miles from home. The bus rides are long, tedious and often well after midnight.
It's coping with not having your best stuff and how to win without it. Or having it, but learning when and where to throw it. And how to get ahead consistently in the count.
It doesn't happen overnight.
He can't let the doubters or critics get in his head.
The key will be his drive and passion for the game.
As long as he has that, he has a chance to make it.
