  1. cant wait to see his numbers in Colorado Springs!
  2. high-five to you!
  3. I CONSIDER ONE WIN A STREAK RIGHT NOW!!!!!
  4. Ueck has 2 statues, what more does a guy need?
  5. I think that map would look pretty similar for the NFL too. Another thing to consider regarding this map and baseball is that California, Texas, and Florida also have large hispanic immigrant populations. http://www.besttickets.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/NFL_2014-14.png while those states do represent a large majority, the entire south east/east coast dominates the sport. baseball is far more skewed to those three States than the NFL
  6. look at the first link I posted, it shows where 2014 MLB players grew up, and it's predominately California, Texas and Florida. http://www.besttickets.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Player-Map.png
  7. http://sabr.org/bioproj/topic/baseball-demographics-1947-2012 also this is really interesting. the rise of latin players is really incredible.
  8. i REALLY like the pitchers we have down in Biloxi, its rather exciting to see them move quickly, Hobbs being a 2013 pick already in AA?
  9. http://www.besttickets.com/blog/mlb-players-census/ really interesting
  10. I AM ALL FOR OPTIMISM!!!! EVEN IF IT MEANS TANKING AND REBUILDING FOR THE FUTURE!!! I really really REALLY dont like how MLB teams cannot trade draft picks. Its one way how MLB is still behind the times in terms of professional sports. Imagine if we could trade for picks and could net an extra one or two 1st/2nd rd picks next year? droooooooooooolllllllllllllll
  11. Ive never likd Thorny as a RP, get him stretched back out and be that 6th/7th SP this season with Junngmann.
  12. adding that curve has been amazing!!
  13. also, http://espn.go.com/espnmag/story?id=4059596 is a pretty good round table with CC Sabathia, Jimmy Rollins and Carl Crawford in 2013.
  14. http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/9186117/why-african-americans-play-pro-baseball The committee members need to see the industry of youth baseball for what it has become: A business enterprise designed to exclude those without the means and mobility to participate. Over the past 15 to 20 years, the proliferation of pay-for-play teams in youth baseball -- and the parallel proliferation of parents willing to pay for them and coaches willing to cash their checks -- has had more of an impact on African-American participation than anything another sport has to offer. THIS. You want to understand why african american youth dont participate and stick with youth baseball? Its because the cost outweighs the benefit in the short-term, not the long-term, and the cost makes the long-term unattainable. http://www.theplayerstribune.com/left-out/ read McCutchen's story. Its more about family economics than pretty much anything else. baseball has become more suburban over the years, making it tougher for inner city youth to participate in leagues. On top of that, the NFL and NBA champion their inner city programs, so if you had to choose between programs that are easily and readily accessible, where you see your peers finding success? no question.
  15. MARK MARK HES OUR MAN, IF HE CANT DO IT NO ONE CAN!
  16. did Macias jump from high A to AAA?
  17. Pirates lost again, they are 1 - 7 against everyone not milwaukee this year. LOL
  18. I am still excited every night! they lost again? MEH! Bring on the next game!
  19. i'll be shocked if we see 4 runs total in tonights game, let alone 4 runs in one at bat, multiple times, like last night.
  20. Yo this kris bryant kid? Hes sorta decent
  21. what are the moves that happen ebcause of this? Centano to MLB, who moves upo to AAA?
  22. Stache thats the spirit!
