  1. His +/- numbers have been really up and down throughout his career...some years pretty good others pretty bad...but yeah..other than his being RH...I don't see any reason to even consider it
  2. RHD Tony Deangelo is a FA after pulling a Zadina in Philly...he is ...by reputation...a bad person...put he has a nice offensive game and was originally drafted by Tampa Bay under Yzerman. Sign...pass or hard pass?
  3. Stupid Canadian wildfires...
  4. I think Jobe belongs in that tier with Clark and Keith. He's primed to move quickly....
  5. The Leafs have to do something to get off the treadmill...don't know if that means moving on from Nylander, but they have to shuffle the deck a bit
  6. I was not a Thompson guy pre draft...but he seems like an intelligent player who works on defense and has a ton of fluid, explosive athleticism. If he continues to improve his shooting...he has a stupid high ceiling
  7. I would put Jobe at #3 on raw materials alone...I would rank McGonigle in the top 5 and Anderson in the top 10 ahead of Dingler
  8. So...this is fun
  9. Did not know he had been converted to pitcher
  10. Was watching the Tigers Minor league report YouTube cast of the draft. One of the fellas on there was raving about Jobe adding a 3rd pitch with a 2600+ spin rate ( a cutter) said he was already a bit of a unicorn with two pitches ( a FB and SL) that had high spin rates. If his health holds up...which is forever a concern wit pitchers, passing on Mayer and Lawlar might wind up being a good bit less painful.
  11. Yeah...he doesn't look ready for the NHL physically. If his Jr team is as bad (assuming he isn't dealt by them) as they were last year....he could probably play for GR in the playoffs or maybe even get a look with the Wings if he develops a bit
  12. As long as they don't start believing the hype...hype, hype, hype away!!!
  13. Connors State must have a robust NIL program.... Guys like this used to go to the NY Penn League or a similar short season circuit. He's probably too far along to be in the FCL...may not be room for him in Lakeland. The Connecticut Tigers were a great place to park college draftees and UDFA's. I think they erred in eliminating that short season A tier
  14. Does Tom Selleck's gimmick AB in spring training count?
  15. I almost killed a woman who was pitching in a coed league when i was in my 20's...hit a line drive at her, but it kinda curved around her at eye level. It was crossing 2nd base when she got the glove up. No more coed after that
  16. Perron...Larkin...DeBrincat Ras...Compher...Raymond Berggren...Copp...Sprong Kostin...Veleno...Fischer
  17. You can clearly identify what Stewart brings to the table...I struggle to do that with Bagley
  18. Added scoring depth as well...
  19. Jobe would not have lasted 15 picks had Al Al not taken him...Noble Meyer isn't as highly rated and he went 10th in a deeper draft. Jobe needs to be in WM ASAP...he's far too advanced for Lakeland
  20. That was one of Harmon Killebrew's nicknames...popularized in Bouton's Ball Four
  21. Stew signs a 4 year $64 million deal with the Pistons
  22. I like the Anderson pick...seems like a hitter. We'll worry about that position later. Plus...since he's a squat 6-0 215lbs...we can call him The Fat Kid
  23. I'm warming up to the Clark pick...as well as the Anderson pick. He can hit and he bats RH...adds balance to the org. McGonigle could be a steal where we got him...he has a quick compact swing...he could move quickly in the system
  24. Time to move Gold and Jobe to WM and Jung to Erie
