Let’s face it, the economic downtown has forced many career changes.  If you’re in that camp, you might be looking at organizations that have experienced some unforeseen turnover.  The St. Louis Cardinals are one such organization.

Now, maybe manager, pitching coach and All Star first baseman didn’t exactly align with your Monster.com résumé.  No worries.  May we suggest something a tier down on the professional baseball hierarchy.

That’s right, the Cardinals are currently looking for a new equipment wrangler.  If you think you have what it takes to wear your first name on a baseball jersey twenty years after Tee Ball, then this is the position for you.

Personally, we like the line about “special” assignments from the Team Manager.  This kid is soooo fetching dead ducks on hunting trips with Mike Matheny and John Mabry.

We also like that being an “outstanding student” is a necessary qualification.  Right, because a passing grade in Chemistry directly relates to excellence in Gatorade powder mixing.  We also enjoy that there’s an minimum age requirement….but no maximum.
