@alixonmartinez2 If I understand you right, I hope you are still encouraging players to think about their futures after baseball (education). Life after baseball will come, and come very, very quickly for 99% of them.

For the big crying babies talking trash on JUCOS AND saying
“GO D3, get an education”
“Go D3, develop and transfer up”
“Go D3, you get academic money, so you have a plan for the future” F THAT!!!
HOW ABOUT.. BELIEVE IN YOURSELF! Prove that you belong and can play at the highest level.. get schooling paid for at any division through baseball..
JUCO BASEBALL IS LEGIT BASEBALL..
those saying otherwise are ignorant and misinformed!!!
You don’t see jeff passan making a documentary on shitty ass D3
Sorry.. it had to be said!!!
Jeff Passan@JeffPassan
They have more home runs than any team in college history. They won 41 straight games. They have 20+ D1 players. They had a pitcher shove a catcher on the mound. The wild story of JCCC and how juco bandits are changing the frontier of college baseball: youtube.com/watch?v=mbEydN…

@C4SEY85 @vmaughan3 When other people say they don’t understand something, I’d recommend not letting that bother you when it has zero effect on your life.

I don’t understand the sliding mitt for anyone below pro ball. I played through college and was a middle infielder who stole bases. Never once hurt my hand/fingers sliding into a base. Why do 10/11 year olds need them?
Hunt Martin PGA.@huntmartinpga
We have failed as human beings 11 year old kid walking in with 2 sliding mitts, a leg guard, elbow guard, leg guard, 4 batts, a sleeve, and Yeezy slides all on his bag. Obliterate.

Naomi Osaka took the court for her first French Open match in an all black dress with no white at all.
Just like her parties.

@BrockHuard He’s also not a top-tier starter. The frustration is understandable but he’s always about 10 pitches away from giving up 4 runs.

Daniel Kramer@DKramer_
Another look at Luis Castillo after learning that his night was done. Can’t recall ever seeing this kind of frustration in his nearly four years with the Mariners. "We knew that was part of the plan, and you've got to respect what his decision was."

@marinersfan74 No differently than it has. He’s had chances with two other clubs. The world is full of can’t-miss 1st

@DanClarkSports Younger fans don’t care much about winning. They’re way more into betting and what they see fun and passionate. And if they actually play, they’re all about attention when they finally get a hit. There’s a reason why Banana Ball is popular.

It is an incredible honor to receive an endorsement from Congresswoman Maxine Waters.
She has been one of the most powerful voices in Washington as Ranking Member of the House Financial Services Committee, opening the doors of banking and finance to Black and Brown communities who were locked out for generations.

@DefiantLs Can we just agree that entertainers’ brains are wired such that their thinking is driven solely by emotion and imagination? And adulation and money.

Bryce Miller on the piggyback situation: "This set-up's not very comfortable."

@EmeraldYard3 Welcome to The Managing Strictly by Data Show already in progress.
English
This makes zero sense for the Mariners. They are essentially wasting a Bryce miller start just to eat innings and keep him stretched out. You either trade someone, send someone to the bullpen or go to a 6 man rotation. Luis castillo is pissed, Bryce miller is pissed. Not good

@alixonmartinez2 My son played 4 years in a quality D3 program. He always gets a laugh out of kids and parents who do a signing day for a D3 school like they’re signing their athletic scholarship deal.
English
Repeat after me:
D3 CANNOT give athletic scholarships.
They DO have Academic scholarships.
THEY AREN’T ALLOWED by the league to GIVE ATHLETIC SCHOLARSHIPS.

@Softykjr Brad Adams had to be expecting a company line answer.

Damn I love his honesty. He's worth way more to this team than to enter a game in mop up duty up 7. And he knows it.
Mariners have a chance to roll with one eventually and make their bullpen a complete nightmare for opponents.

@TridentTrue He passed the eye test toolwise. Handling failure is the hard part.

This man on an electric bike is riding down the sidewalk in a park.
As he comes upon a family he yells “on your left.”
The father with his wife and kid tells him to just go on the grass.
The man on the hike stops and they have words almost leading to a fight.
As the family continues the man in the bike comes up behind them again and this time the father gives him a gentle push onto the grass. The man on the hike is going to call the cops.
So, who is the real Karen here? Is it the man in the bike or the dad?
Is the sidewalk big enough for all of them or should the guy on the bike veered off a little on the grass to get around them?

Witnessed a 14u team show up at 6:45AM this morning for a 8AM game…
They proceeded to jump the fence before the HS coach was there to unlock the gate.
Travel coach was oblivious to it all and followed up with “You cool with us hitting in the outfield “

I coach varsity H.S. baseball and travel ball… and I’d take H.S. baseball every single time. The school pride. The community. The rivalries. The pressure to win. The packed playoff games. Playing for your town. In my eyes H.S. baseball just means more.
