Pretty much every major college and pro sports team does. And we get addicted to the work. :Wall:

I also found it very interesting how much he reveres those who came before him. The parts about Buck O'Neil, visiting the Negro Leagues Museum and how often he goes to Cooperstown were really cool.

I read it as more of a prison of his dad's making. Really sad how he basically abused him as a child by forcing him to train 365 days a year. Throwing baseballs at his head. All this starting at age 3! Not to mention screwing up his taxes costing him almost 200k. Really a sad story. Makes me...

Interesting. So then flip them on the road maybe?

I really wish they would put Markakis in LF and Acuna Jr in RF.

Do Jose Bautista or Matt Holliday get a deal anywhere?

Agreed and it is making this place hard to visit. Enscheff's constant belittling of other posters is creating a hostile environment on this board. I've been around the various Braves forums since around 2000 and this is the only time I've considered giving them up. After he came back from his...

WATCHESPN app has a lot of college games to stream.

I just moved to Oxford in December from the pacific northwest.

I was listening to Inside Pitch on MLB Radio the other day and they had a reliever on talking about how he didn't think the 2:05 time was enough for when a guy has to come from the bullpen to warm up between innings. I am not sure I like this restriction. Also, they said that umpires are being...

That still irritates me. 90% of people associate Maddux with Atlanta.

Still can't believe the Call of Duty online ad that he did 7-8 years ago.

One thing to also consider is that with us trading international pool money and our limitations on signing international players is that we have lost almost all leverage with trading that money. Other teams know we basically cannot use it very effectively so it makes it easier for them to 'win...

I could see him landing in Seattle as well. They have had success in signing Japanese players over the years.

The fact that several other scouts said most other teams are doing this is why we need either an integrated draft with US born players or a separate international draft. This foolishness needs to stop.

The shadiness of the international signing business is exactly why their either needs to be an integrated draft or an international draft. I am tired of all the shenanigans honestly.

Seems a small price to pay to develop your prospects properly.

I'd be ecstatic if we could get back to at least the top 5.

I thought Heyward was never quite the same after our MLB staff kept trying to get him to be a pull hitter. I feel like he started rolling over more balls and just wasn't the same hitter after that. I liked that even Chipper called the staff out on that.

I really do not get why they don't use the same ball. That to me seems dumb.
