I hadn't seen this posted but Kiley McDaniels did his top 200 prospects list in a better way. He made tiers of FV ratings (Buxton and K Bryant being 70s).

Josh Hamilton smoking rocks again?

Meth is a helluva drug.

 

[osick87]

Jays signed Johan Santana to a minor league deal. Cool.

 

[pavel]

Sooo, the Pittsburgh leg of the trip is out, and replaced with Cubs-Doyers at Wrigley. @Packfan or @Gooksta, what's the scene like for scalped tickets? Or should I just look to buy seats when single-game tix come out Friday? Kind of inclined to wing it and hope the Dodgers are all kinds of terrible and not a draw on a Tuesday night, but I know those fat Iowa girls will snatch up seats all kinds of quick come Friday...HMMMM

Of course, I'm down to meet up for beers before, the flight gets into Midway at 12:30 that afternoon...

 

[pavel]

Ima wear my vintage T

 

[pavel]

Or maybe this old thing

I have been burned by scalpers in Chicago once. So be weary. I'd just go through stubhub

 

[Orlando]

I've used stubhub every time I've gone to Wrigley. You should find decent seats for a Tuesday night.

 

[bruin]

Puig going to go yard twice.

 

[Yankee151]

The Phillies lost to U of Tampa, who are Division 2.

Top ranked in Divison 2. RAJ's kid scored the tying run.

Proof that the last name Amaro is doom for the Phillies.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

The Phillies lost to U of Tampa, who are Division 2.

I got shelled by Tampa my junior year.

 

[ebarws6]

Was looking through highlights of Brett Lawrie from last year and came across this

 

[Gooksta]

Cliff Lee injured. more heat on Amaro

 

[Mr. Radpants]

Ruen Tamaro should have a lifetime contract.

 

[R2D2]

Can't wait till Cole Hamels gets dealt to the Yanks for Alex Rodriguez, Brian McCann, and CC Sabathia.

 

[osick87]

This ad is pretty pretty good

[Karl Hungus]

Oh shit.

 

[osick87]

Well either Johan is making it or Norris gets to live in his Van in the TDot

 

[osick87]

 

[Sink]

Pary are with you osick.

 

[osick87]

It's okay. As a fan of other Toronto teams, I am used to having a sad heart.

Stroman looks like Keith Willis from the Richmond Railroaders. Short brother, threw gas, drafted in the first round. Sorry, his career is over. He'll get injured again and then his rankings will tank.

 

[Yankee151]

At least he wasn't part of a trade from OU with a GOAT going the other way

 

[DeadMan]

Torn ACL in baseball? Seems like an odd injury.

 

[osick87]

He was doing bunt fielding drills and Donaldson called him off and his knee did something bad.

I wonder if Cincy would be willing to dish Cueto if we ate Votto's contract.

 

[DeadMan]

Bunt fielding drills? In the AL? But why?

 

[osick87]

There are stupid managers in the AL too

 

[Mr. Radpants]

PFPs suck even when you don't tear an ACL.

 

[DeadMan]

So it's not just the Rockies with stupid managers? Who knew?

 

[Mr. Radpants]

Well real life GMs don't get to click a tab and get true ratings so

 

[OU11]

Well real life GMs don't get to click a tab and get true ratings so

That would make everything easier, wish they had that in OOTP

I always enjoyed those. It was fun to make the mad dash to first on a 3-6-1 DP.

Assistant corch in college was a jerk, shot absolute BBs at us with the fungo.

So did ours. It became readily apparent who did and did not wear a cup.

 

[Gooksta]

Remember this name. Gleybar Torres. 18 yr old SS for the Cubs. Will play in A ball this yr. Just hit a triple. #2ndwave

I saw him pitch in AA in 2013. He didn't impress me, but maybe it was a bad day.

Mets got nothing.

Time to dig this out again.
