Dickey was the Texas Rangers' much-heralded No. 1 draft choice. Then, a routine physical revealed that his right elbow was missing its ulnar collateral ligament, and his lifelong dream--along with his $810,000 signing bonus--was ripped away. Yet, despite twice being consigned to baseball's scrap heap, Dickey battled back. Sustained by his Christian faith, the love of his wife and children, and a relentless quest for self-awareness, Dickey is now the starting pitcher for the Toronoto Blue Jays (he was previously a star pitcher for the New York Mets) and one of the National League's premier players, as well as the winner of the 2012 Cy Young award. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eWherever I Wind Up\u003c\/i\u003e, Dickey eloquently shares his quintessentially American tale of overcoming extraordinary odds to achieve a game, a career, and a life unlike any other.","brand":"Penguin Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45408966934679,"sku":"9780452299016","price":2172.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780452299016.webp?v=1767310879","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/wherever-i-wind-up-my-quest-for-truth-authenticity-and-the-perfect-knuckleball-9780452299016","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
