Anyone else pumped for the draft? Yanks better not go crazy and pull a Cito Culver or Dante Bichette Jr. with their 3 picks in the first round.

Hopefully we can nab a prep pitcher or two with those 3 picks.Anyone else pumped for the draft? Yanks better not go crazy and pull a Cito Culver or Dante Bichette Jr. with their 3 picks in the first round.
We've lost 4 of 5.. feels bad man
I posted this over in OT, so I might as well post it over here too. I don't know if anyone has seen it, but this is a cool documentary I saw on recruitment of young players in the Dominican Republic.
Ballplayer: Pelotero.
It's a pretty good look into the way prospects are groomed and signed away from the Dominican Republic. Families take their kids out of school to go to these baseball boarding schools to help support their families. Families that live on scraps bank on their sons getting 6-7 figure signing bonuses from Major League teams.
It shows the incentive for players to lie about their age and take performance enhancing drugs. Sometimes the difference between extreme poverty and enough wealth to support generations to come is one forged birth certificate or some drugs. Once you are over 16 years old you are worth much, much less to Major League teams.
My sleeper pick up 2 years ago finally paying off.QUIT THROWING AT MATT CARPENTER DAMNIT!!!!
So if current scores hold, the Mariners will finish the day with a better record than the Angels.
We'll probably have to call someone up for a day or two. Or live and die with Marte and the new guy.2 innings for Mujica. 3 pitchers down out of the pen tomorrow night. If Kelly fails, he'll be left in there to die.
Heard about the Steroid suspensions, got real worried about Chris Davis.
I'm feeling better now.
Ramiro Pena is so gonna get busted.OTL said that wasn't all the names and some people were under codenames. MLB is trying to find out who they are.

Very good point. Hopefully we win tonight so tomorrow's punt doesn't hurt as bad.Wonder how many position players are going to need a day off tomorrow, too. Yadi should repeal his suspension appeal because he's probably sitting out tomorrow anyway.
MATT CARPENTER PLUNKED FOR THE 3RD TIME THIS GAME!!!
