First off thanks for the recommendation, SpartyOn4! And this forum is awesome to keep track of minors players. Minor League Ball had a different feel for sure, but this place can be great in its own right. As for my content, I generally put out 1 post a week on Monday for free up on my website, and then the rest of the week will be on my patreon. I only posted the opening day rundown post on my patreon too because I was off my usual schedule and didn't want you guys to miss it.

Major League is a baseball movie, and Ricky "Wild Thing" Vaughn was a reliever in the final game. By the power vested in me by this community, I declare this discussion to be on topic.

5 fouls in 13 mins. Yep.. he's definitely back!

He was a late round pick, not my 2nd wife...

Took like 17 years to get here, but we're here.

Imagine being upset that Adam Frazier is getting a day off.

Excellent. Now he can be completely useless at 2b, instead of Util.

With all due respect, everyone needs to calm down if anyone is upset with this line or him not going another inning or two. 7 great innings with over a k per inning, sub 1 whip, QS, Win, 0 ER for a guy you probably picked up on the wire or late round pick. Sometimes life is good, let's enjoy it.

that guy would find something to complain about while on vacation in Tahiti sipping Pina Coladas.

You really think the Rays will trade him?

Totally OT but interesting factoid: Their father, actor Martin Sheen, said he was pretty much forced to take a stage name when he got in the business because someone with the birth name of Estevez was never going to move up to become a leading man way back then but would only be cast in "ethnic" supporting roles. His father was ethnic Mexican and his mother ethnic Irish so the "Sheen" fit too. He said he was proud Emilio could keep their birth name and wished he had been able to. Another tidbit. Charlie Sheen pitched in college so his Wild Thing wasn't too much of a stretch. Now back to

???? Story's first 670 PAs: .253/.328/.503 .352 wOBA 32.5 K 9.2 BB 38 HRs 10 SB Hiura's career 670 PAs: .253/.330/.476 .340 wOBA 32.8 K 7.0 BB 33 HRs 13 SB. Story was a whiff machine the first 1000 PAs of his career and half of this forum thought he smoke n mirrors in that time frame. I don't consider it a direct talent comparison. Just that he's a talented young hitter who is only probably few changes from turning the corner and really breaking out. Does it happen this year? Heck if I know.

[ PED kerfuffle removed. Unsubstantiated allegations and idle speculation about players juicing aren't okay here. ]

Can you imagine holding this dude all season and he returns the day after you’re eliminated from the playoffs? It’s like raaaaaaiinnnn on your weddding day

Mods, please ban St. Steven from game day threads. Thanks.

This is about the point in the season where prospects' defense suddenly becomes acceptable.

Two months ago you wrote "he’s just a fat exciting name who hits the ball on the ground" which is exactly the type of insinuation of which you speak.

Picture this: it's the year 2098, the world is a nuclear wasteland. Buildings are merely empty crumbling shells. The sky is an orange, purple color, constantly highlighted by dust clouds and frequent lightning. Any tree or plant life is no more. Life has completely ceased to exist. There....under the rubble....an abandoned cellphone powers up just for an instant......an update flashes across the screen: "Kebryan hayes will take swings next week, and should be back shortly after that"

Last chance to buy low on Luis Castillo before you can pick him up off waivers.

This forum sure goes from “slightly above average regular” to “league winner” real quick...

It's a term for the length of time one would reasonably expect a player to require before returning from a hip flexor strain, but that isn't important right now.

Am I seeing the right box score? 4 hits and 3 earned runs with only 7 pitches thrown?

B2B nurk alert boys lets go

I know how you feel, I didn't get him either.

I did. I'd rather suffer with him than let anyone else have a chance at happiness this might also help explain my romantic struggles

Looking at how last year ended and this year is beginning, I might need to be Old Yellered as a fantasy manager.

The entire season has been a bust

I enjoy all overreaction and humor on this board, as the later is rare. If I can't overreact like a lunatic to fantasy baseball, what's the f'n point?!

Career highs: R/ 69 - HR/ 16 - RBI/ 51 - SB/ 29 - AVG/ .262 MONSTEROUS I'm enjoying his production when he plays this year but the only category he is a MONTER in is games missed.

Yea, sure you would

Keep going, I'm almost there.

Imagine thinking Vlad would never be good 🐸🍸

Aging like the absolutely finest of milks. Laid out two more dongs tonight and will be 100% owned in leagues by noon tomorrow.

Run, don't walk, to pick up Sims with the deception he's added to his arsenal this year.

La Tortuga lighting up the radar gun in his 2nd career pitching appearance: Time to petition Yahoo to add "Willians Astudiio (Pitcher)"
