Seaver King...book it. Played at four positions (3rd, SS, 2B and CF) this season. AJ will love him. https://www.mlb.com/news/seaver-king-guide#:~:text=King was undaunted by the,SS%2C CF) in 2024.

The roster is capped at what they were this year...a boderline playoff team. Changes need to be made on the blueline and in goal and guys like Kasper, Mazur and Danielson who can play a 200ft game need to get a long look. Be great to add guys like Necas and/or Guentzel who are proven scorers

I would put a higher value on Edvinsson than Byram...but I'd also put a higher value on Necas over Middlestadt., But no...I wouldn't trade Edvinsson for Necas.

Poster child for FAFO...

Necas is an RFA...Which might somewhat lessen his value. Also rumors that we're going to be in on Carolina UFA Guentzel. A trade for both ahead of FA would be interesting

Tork talks.... https://twitter.com/MudHens/status/1800901134380302767?s=19

Of course they'll listen to offers...it's not like Harris is going to plug his ears and yell "la la la" to avoid it. There are times Benetti starts to get a little heavy on "look at me...I'm Bob Costas " style of humor...but on balance, he does well.

Cossa is a more like a year away..Augustine is more like two years away. We need an upgrade in goal, but can't see trading significant assets to get there

A lot of people were sold on Tork in 2020... https://youtu.be/YlXe21GCWy0?si=9ZxzKhyF33sWBEyn

Hurley is obviously waiting for the Pistons gig..

We need to find a team or two that will sell us JD Martinez level bats for garbage prospects

What's left...Spotrac?

Binetti's too cute by half humor is beginning to wear on me...

I would suspect they will bump multiple guys up a level after the draft

Tork goes 3-5 with two doubles....OPS in Toledo is over 1.000

Lee hit his 9th HR of the season for Erie...only 21 yrs old in AA.

Goalie John Lethemon is leaving Toledo to play in Finland next year

They also signed 2019 pick Carter Gylander to a 2 year contract earlier this spring. He's gonna have go play somewhere. Probably Toledo?

1973 John Hiller...65 games..finished 60. 10-5 record..38 saves..125 ip 1.44 era. I think you got a savecthen if you finished the game regardless of the score

Bednar could still get loaned to Toledo...I guess. I think Augustine would stay at MSU...but who knows what might happen in camp

Bednar just signed an AHL deal with Grand Rapids

I think AJ begging off on the question before the game (haven't discussed that this morning...trying to win the game) is an indication that they were sending him down after the game

Baez has a very good glove at SS and he is hitting well with RISP. He frustrates the hell out of me when he swings at pitches not even close to the strike zone...but he contributes. Tork isn't a great or even good defender and he struggles to hit middle/middle fb in the low 90's. Heard Dickerson say that he gets caught in the rocking chair....changing speeds and levels seems to completely screw him up. Don't know how you fix that..but running him out there every day isn't working

Javy with the swinging K on a pitch he would have missed if he was swinging a phone pole

Lucky to escape that inning only allowing 1...
