Ever hear of Casey Mulligan the ballplayer?

Perhaps you will in a few years. Mulligan is carrying an impressive 1.53 ERA this summer for the Cardinals Single-A club in Palm Beach and could be throwing in Busch Stadium someday soon.

For now, though, Mulligan might best be known for the YouTube video of him performing Michael Jackson's "Thriller" during a recent rain delay in Florida. The kid has moves.
