I enjoy talking/writing about D1/JUCO college baseball and minor league prospects. Hit me up for manga/anime recs. I will discuss politics to call out bullshit.

1. braille aren't flat dots. 2. blind people aren't watching baseball. 3. This is gimmicky and bad. Might as well be morse code.
Holy shit
@BrianKempGA
stole the damn election.
Of the more than 300,000 names that were purged from the rolls, the study discovered that 198,351 Georgia voters were wrongly purged, a 63.3% error rate.

I am a male that mentors women and men. I've trained and mentored a team in another country (Manila) via web conference. And I'm about as introverted as it gets. Glad my mom raised me better.

If she cares about the Democratic party, she'd pass it on to someone who can make changes.
@AOC
for speaker!
Democratic party needs real change. This election showed a lot and Democrats are seriously lacking.
@Feinsand
Freeman’s agent minutes after giving the Braves an ultimatum and then signing with another team for less money.
I just can’t stop laughing at this whole thing.
I wasn't happy that the Braves paid Drue Hackenberg almost $2M.
I was wrong. He's much better than I thought and he's fun to watch.
Just a smart pitcher. He works across all the zones and changes it up.
I like smart pitchers! Oh, and he throws 94-96 mph.
@Gladvillain
I've been saying this for awhile now. Not just Zillow. But other corporations, even from other countries snapping up real estate. This shouldn't be legal.
I feel awful. Younger generations aren't going to be able to afford a house until they are 50.
I've been serious and had a few jokes.
But back to being serious. Question.
Would anyone trade a WS title for the punishment the Astros got? I'd do it in a heartbeat. If people are being honest, I bet they'd agree.
That just tells me the punishment wasn't enough.
Mike Soroka is throwing the CH and SL harder than he did previously. Pitches have tons of movement. He's still pitching to all quadrants and hitting his spots.
SI at 91
4S at 92/93
CH at 84
SL at 87
Just amazing.
2 IN, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 5 K
Hurston Waldrep's first pitch is a 97 mph fastball. Gave up a loud double on a 97 mph FB.
FB at 97
SL at 86-88
CH at 85-88
2 K on a SL, 1 on the splitter
6 swing/miss on 11 pitches 👀
1 IN, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K
Fun Fact
These Braves prospects all set new highs in strikeouts (10+) within the past month:
Tucker Davidson (6/13) - 10
Ian Anderson (6/28) - 14
Philip Pfiefer (6/30) - 11
Tristan Beck (7/1) - 11
Joey Wentz (7/6) - 10
Jasseel De La Cruz (7/7) - 10
AJ Smith-Shawver's first strikeout froze the knees with a backdoor curve. Got another K swinging on the curve.
Needed just 10 pitches.
FB: 95/96
1 IN, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 2 K

My favorite is when you are about to click the next page or load comments or anything but an ad, and the page shifts down as the ads weren't completely loaded and then I "accidentally" click on an ad. Ugh!
If JD is really back, I still think AA needs to make a splashy trade. Get Gray from Rockies would be great and is likely available. Or I still think the team needs another bat. Maybe Haniger? Either are splashy enough and wouldn’t break the farm.

@AOC
It took way too long for some like AOC to come along but my God she’s awesome. She’s actually fighting for regular working people and people hate her. Good on her. Hopefully more DEMS and even Republicans come around. Get corporate interests & money out of politics.
One of the keywords with Caminiti is athleticism. Something the Braves covet.
One of the youngest in the draft. Another thing the Braves love. More time to mold them.
Up to 98 at 17 years old with a delivery that offers some deception.
AJ Smith-Shawver walked and hit a batter to start the 4th.
FB: 93-96 mph
K on CH
AJSS is out after hitting his pitch count.
3.2 IN, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 3 K

Corrupt Gov Brian Kemp goes from purging voters to purging lives.
Our leaders should be held accountable for spikes in coronavirus cases and deaths. This is preventable.
Listen to actual scientists. I wear a mask cause I care about your life.
MLB is now investigating Brian Snitker.
From MLB: It's come to our attention that Snitker can really play the sh*t out of bongos. We are thinking about starting a band and want to include him.
Bongo-gate 2020!!
Braves now have 4 picks in the first 100 in the 2023 draft after getting the 69th pick (nice) for Swanson.
It should be more, but due to the stupid wording for rookies, the Braves get no pick for Harris winning ROY. Which likely would have been the 30th pick in the draft.
I don’t need more of guys like Russin and Chacin. Veteran players can suck. Bring in the young guys like Davidson and Weigel. Let them play and learn. Their upside is much better if things click.
Spencer Strider picked up his 10th strikeout to start the 6th inning.
Just straight dealing.
Ok, he now has 11 K's. Sheesh, give me time to type dammit!
Braden Shewmake has 3 hits tonight and has driven in 2 of the Rome Braves 4 runs. Just knocked in what could be the game winning run in the top of the 9th too.
@scottcoleman55
I just want to see players get used if the Braves aren't going to make moves.
Either use the prospects we have that are ready or freakin' trade them for a box of baseballs.
Making no trades and not utilizing talent at Gwinnett is just beyond stupid.
Luiz Gohara 92-94 here in the 6th. Effortless. Offspeed pitches look good. Oppossing team has back to back hits off the fastball. They haven't touched his offspeed. Needs to throw those pitches more than the fastball.
For those at home counting, the Braves have signed 8 players so far.
3 OF:
Luis Guanipa, $2.5M
Carlos Monteverde, $700K
John Estevez, $310K
3 SS:
Mario Baez, $240K (+/++ speed)
Carlos Cordero, $200K (switch hitter)
John Gill, $110K
2 RHP:
Whilmer Guerra, $?
John Ramos, $?
Mike Soroka is a nightmare. Pitches move away from the batter, in on the hands, or fading/dipping down.
Pinpoint control to hit his spots with the 4S. So it's not like you can sit straight FB since he doesn't throw it much.
3 IN, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 8 K 🔥🚨🤮
