With the world at our fingertips, the twenty-first century is a far cry from ages past. As long as one has the freedom and the ethics, one can choose whatever job suits their fancy. There are endless options; too many even, it could be said. While some people discover their dream job early on in life, it takes others a lifetime to discover theirs. After all, who is to say one’s passion won’t shift as one grows up?

And yet, for those that have set interests from a young age, life seems easy. Every major decision in life can be taken as a step towards fulfilling that goal. And from a recent set of videos making the rounds on social media, it seems a toddler has already found his love for life – baseball (MLB)!

They say athletes are not made, they’re forged. Hard work on the heels of raw talent, plus a knack for grabbing opportunities, and Voila! A great player comes into existence. And from recent videos of two-year-old Julián Jr., posted by MLB insider Héctor Gómez, the kid clearly has some serious skills.

The caption says, “Check out the powerful swing of little Julián Jr., only 2 years old. 🔥🔥🔥”, and it shows a great player in the making. Both videos show the kid hitting the ball as powerfully as his little body will allow, and one of the balls even comes close to clocking the person behind the camera!

Will Julián Jr. join the ranks of iconic MLB prodigies?

While MLB may only be a little more than a century old, baseball has been around for even longer. Players from all nationalities, genders, and races have left their mark on the sport. Some ranked low on the talent bar, some were mediocre, and some have been extremely high. Ranging from names like Tim Lincecum and Albert Pujols to Alex Rodriguez and Derek Jeter, the national pastime of America has seen many greats.
