Cliff Christopherson

@KingofJUCO if you want to strike out against the best 39 year old pitcher in Minnesota amateur baseball, I’m available in Tempe till Saturday!

@BushmanBg9 @TheFedMN @MtkaSaints @TCSnappers I tried too… turns out Scotty has friends everywhere and everyone wants him.

@TheRedDog12 @TheFedMN @MtkaSaints @TCSnappers Heath and Scotty D are huge grabs!! Honestly think that squad is an easy bet for deep AAA contention this year and going forward…apparently I’m not great at recruiting🫣

We promised more transaction action (Kyler Murray who?) from the @MtkaSaints and @TCSnappers and here we go with the details and numbers from the Federal Leagues biggest offseason moves so far. Scott Davis Catcher Bloomington Bandits >>> Minnetonka Saints Longtime Catcher for the former Bloomington Bandits finds a new home with the Minnetonka Saints. Davis was also a longtime member of the TCMBAL Cardinals batting .285 with 153 hits, 128 RBI and 132 runs in 199 games played. Fun fact, Scott was teammates with the leagues newly elected commish Cliff Christopherson of Rosemount, even hitting a double in a 2-0 win over Burnsville in a Christopherson no-hitter back in 2013. Jeff Heath Infield Minneapolis River Rats >>> Minnetonka Saints This Irondale graduate has spent many years on the baseball diamond, including stops at Century College, Grandview University doing most of his work on the mound. Heath joined up with the Tri-City Shark then moved on to the Minneapolis River Rats. He also spent the last eight summers with the TCMBAL Cardinals hitting .407, 10 homeruns, 109 RBI and 135 runs in 131 games. He also has a 14-1-6 record on the bump, with a 1.77 ERA with 155 strikeouts in 110 innings. When not playing baseball Heath is coaching baseball with the Minnesota Icemen travel baseball program. Mike Shanor Outfield Lakeville Lobos >>> St Louis Park Snappers Shanor is the third player from the Lobo to Snapper switch following Larsen and Stolhanske. This Edison graduate spent summers with the Metro Merchants in the Park National and the St Boni Saints in the CRV. More recently Shanor hit .467 with 6 RBI in eight games with the Lobos last season. He also led the TCMABL Knights in RBIs with 15 and was second in runs scored with 9 while hitting .333 in eleven games last summer. Before his stints with the Lobos and Knights, Shanor spent twelve seasons with the Minnoka Grays hitting .404 while scoring 152 runs, 142 RBI and 145 stolen bases. Mike will add depth and experience to the Snappers roster.

Bandit 4 life! 🫡 #lotbeers 🍻

All hail the new Commish! @TheRedDog12

Parking Lot Report S04:E01 | Welcome to 2026

@BaseballNut51 @TheFedMN That’s the one!

@TheRedDog12 @TheFedMN You mean like that …..?

@TheFedMN There is an email going out that is asking for money from me/Joey. Please do not respond or send any money to them. It is a scam and I am looking for ways to remove the fingers of the culprits. Let me know if you have gotten this email.

To be clear, the email Joey sent out on 2-27 is valid. The scam email is from a @mmcgroup.in address.

@StPaulJTs @TheFedMN @RCRocketsbball This is speaking to me way too much… I am embracing the mass is gas mentality this year.

@RCRocketsbball Must’ve shrunk in the dryer.

Since we can't go field grounders outside it might be a good time to make sure that uniform is gonna fit this year. Baseball is coming!

@RCRocketsbball @markvonruden

@markvonruden Just bitter that you got us excited. Well, aside from the @TheRedDog12 part but he's probably in a different division now...

So I posted this and then the snow came. So sorry baseball friends. This is on me. I got caught up by fake spring.

@markvonruden @HotStveNotFedMN Also I want to learn how to write complete sentences.

@markvonruden I’m going for Cork’s batting title this year. I want try something new. @HotStveNotFedMN

Schedules are being made. Divisions are getting set. @TheRedDog12 is already winning his Cy Young award. Baseball is coming.

Are you ready for some Federal League realignment? Your Rockets are going to have some new rivals this year @TheFedMN

It’s officially baseball season. ⚾️ Federal League up next. ✅

A lot of things suck right now. @TheFedMN baseball does not. Hopefully, this helps you look forward to something that doesn't suck for a couple of minutes. #Minnesota #baseball #townball #35plus #twincities

@Novy1823 @TheFedMN @MilltownOutlaws @bdunk04 That’s all I could see in my mind.

@TheRedDog12 @TheFedMN @MilltownOutlaws If you look real close you can see @bdunk04 likely striking someone out on a filthy changeup.

Even in the winter, this field looks great! I’m ready for baseball to begin! @TheFedMN @MilltownOutlaws

Federal League Hot Stove season is here! Free Agent list is open and teams and prodding and poking at their rosters to get ready for a highly competitive 2026 season. Here are the first three transactions for the upcoming summer... 🔥 Jared Schmidt RHP Highland Park Beavers >>> South Metro Saints This St Paul League veteran and former DCTC right-hander is projected to start some games with the Saints this summer, giving South Metro some depth on the bump. 🔥 Matt Brekke RHP Metro Loons >>> Capital City Cannons Brekke stepped down as Loons manager and headed to the friendly confines of Greenfield, joining up with the Cannons. Brekke gives them a reliable starting arm and someone who can drive in runs for the 2025 B Champions. 🔥 Brandon Staresnick LHP Free Agent >>> Veseli Vulcans Staresnick was picked up by the Senators last June but failed to appear in a game. The left-hander will look to get more innings with the Vulcans. With the West Metro Mavericks, Brandon posted a 8-14, 6.27 ERA with 196 innings the last five summers.
