Former baseball slugger Gregg Jefferies made a visit to the Optometry Practice of Dr. Alex Corbin Liu. Gregg was in town for an eye exam and some other business.
Gregg was drafted by the New York Mets out of High School in the 1985 amateur draft. During his minor league career Gregg was regarded as a top prospect and won the Baseball America Minor League Player of the Year Award in 1986 and 1987. He eventually went on to play for six teams during his big league career which spanned from 1987 to 2000. Many believe Gregg never lived up to the hype as a big leaguer but he did have some good seasons and made two All-Star teams.
What is Gregg up to these days? He is currently living in Las Vegas and works as a hitting instructor.
