We may be back to nearly full time pitching chaos.

Buffalo Springfield.

Your Rookie of the Month

He's so solid in every aspect. Gives one reassurance that this is not some illusion and we are really looking at the early days of a decades long star.

Nice kid and I don't wish him ill but he's the classic 4A player.

Probably my bias but I think Peaches has been really good tonight.

I could see them eating some salary at the deadline to move someone and loosen this up. Flaherty or Jansen.

I think it's mental with Flaherty. After all, 90% of pitching is 50% mental.

I've been blessed to see 15 of the 25 either in person or on the TeeVee. https://www.si.com/mlb/ranking-the-25-greatest-baseball-players-of-all-time

The Willie picture got me started, remembering how he held his bat: I would have sworn he held it even higher when he was younger. I learned he played 2 full seasons in the PCL AFTER 18 years in MLB. I never knew that. This is a great article on Willie, anyone young enough not to know what he did during the Detroit riot of 1967 should read it to understand why he's so beloved in this town. https://baseballhall.org/discover/horton-a-hero-on-and-off-the-field

I used to hold my bat up high in LL, unfortunately I could never hit the ball like Willie.

Of course Peck is a MLB SS if he can hit.

I assumed since she paid him that the consent issue was off the table. Agree on the asshole thing not mattering if talented. I haven't followed his career so no idea how he's pitched in the interim.

Any theories here on why this shunning has stuck? https://www.foxnews.com/outkick-sports/trevor-bauer-says-hed-play-mlb-free-asked-30-teams-isnt-back-big-leagues I'm not especially familiar with the case other than this woman accused him of rough sex?

As was the use of the name Mcgodigle.

Let the torment begin.

Trusting in Mcgodigle is not living on the edge.

It could be argued that Jung isn't much of a prospect either. Kind of sucks that merit didn't win out.
