  1. I always thought "Twitter" was a stupid name...not that "X" is any better...
  2. I'm a member of board devoted to Bowling Green State athletics. We used to get together and tailgate before the home games. A kid who had committed to sign found our board and showed up at our tailgate before a game. He was welcomed to the party and given some free food. The guy who covered BG sports for the Toledo Blade wrote a story about it....to make a long story short..the department self reported the "violation" and the kid had to give the University $10 to set things right. F**k the NCAA...
  3. They do a lot of theme night jerseys in Toledo
  4. I hope that Harris will be able to establish the kinds of international relationships needed to secure the higher profile guys that seem to sign elsewhere
  5. Pacheco on the struggle bus at high A...maybe should have stayed at Lakeland this year?
  6. We knew Miggy was good...but even with the awful last several seasons...he's a historically significant hitter. Retiring with 500+ Hrs, 3100+ hits a.300+ average...not many guys have done that. I expected him to be good...but 1st ballot HOF? exceeded my expectations and I was happy with the deal
  7. If this was hockey would Clark's nickname be Maxer...Clarker..Maxxy or Clarky
  8. He traded for a HOF player in Miggy..that really skews his value returned 🙂
  9. I think Duren is set to have a very good year as well...I like the nucleus of Cade, Ivey and Duren....and hopefully Thompson
  10. Sad news...not unexpected...but still very sad. Not many people get to spend an entire lifetime working at something they love...hats off to Mr Price
  11. The NY /Penn league was a great parking spot for college rookies...leaving the FCL for HS draft picks and kids from the DSL coming stateside. They need to consider adding a 2nd short season team
  12. Jobe had a spinal fracture? I thought it was a "lat strain"...my niece was a travel league softball plyer who had to quit because the constant reps involved in essentially working and playing almost all year caused her to develop stress fractures in her spine. Scary stuff....
  13. Ship out Ibnez...call up Wenceel
  14. There is no greater testimony to the failure of Sands than the presence of Haase as the back up catcher
  15. Anderson has had a very rough season
  16. I would try to lock him up so I could then trade him with a greater return. Trade him to the Braves...we seem to like dealing with them (assuming they're not on the list)
  17. In corporate management terms..the Lions have a "stretch goal" of making the playoffs and winning a game
  18. Would you offer ERod that one year extension at 20 million if he opts in ?
  19. Rogers is a very good defensive C with some power...he has a lot of value in today's game. I was half expecting him to get traded. Perez got hurt, Daz never panned out. In retrospect it was a horrible trade....at the time, I think most people thought Al Al did OK.
  20. Live football is back! I can only stand so many Youtube vids of old games. How about that Donovan Edwards though...he punished OSU
  21. He's 6-4 and can skate. Odd how he lasted until the 4th round. You would think a 6-4 RHD who can make it from one end of the ice to the other without falling down would go higher than that....😀
  22. Rogers was the lowest rated prospect of the three and he turned out to be the best player...by far. https://www.mlb.com/prospects/2017/astros/
  23. Lange is pitching like Hope Lange from the "Ghost and Mrs Muir"
  24. I'm no scout...but that looked like a nice, compact swing...
  25. I'm a long game guy...if yesterday is an aberration..over the long haul it won't mean anything. If it's a sign of things to come...that' a problem. The JD Martinez trade didn't kill us...all of the other deals that were as bad...worse..or never completed did
