Re: MLB Off-Topic
Definitely more direct to the baseball...will be interesting to see if he can stick with it once the season starts. It's like the annual "Tebow has learned to throw" story...and then the games start and you revert to what you've done for so long. I hope he can stick with it.That's a crazy stat.. nice find

Re: MLB Off-Topic
Love how explosive he is to the ball and using his frame to drive it...he's going to get it versus being defensive every swing. Like SF said, I hope he sticks with it.That's a crazy stat.. nice find

They lose 1.8M in their draft bonus pool, which essentially cuts their bonus pool in half.Comment

Re: MLB Off-Topic
Yeah that's an incredibly light punishment considering how draft picks ESPECIALLY that far down are even more of a crapshoot than they are in other sports.Member of the Official OS Bills Backers Club
