    Phil Nevin is managing now?

    http://static.giantbomb.com/uploads/square_small/6/62296/2149378-ScruffySecond.jpg My biggest problem with this whole situation is how the Astros potentially screwed Aiken and Nix out of their college eligibility. Say what you will about the NCAA's ridiculous rules and how the MLB draft is handled, but the Astros knew what they were doing when they talked about negotiating directly with Close after Aiken went unsigned. If this just were about the Astros not signing Aiken because of his medicals, that would have been one thing. But this whole things comes off as petty and vindictive because of what the Astros did. Nix and Aiken can go to JuCo or an Independent League and be draft eligible next year, but their exposure will be limited and my guess is that the pitching coaches at UCLA are better than what Aiken and Nix would get elsewhere. Potentially depriving Nix and Aiken of that option is what tips the scales away from the Astros for me.

    First year of Rutgers and Maryland in the Big 10. So...yay?

    I demand back to back to back to back HRs in AAA.

    Well, I don't like the RR guys and think they are going to end up calling American Legion games.

    Javy Baez must be Mongo.

    I like it when the minor league threads go more than 2 pages. It means good things happened, in all likelihood.

    I want the fans to start dueling "Let's go Jeter!" and "Jeter sucks!" chants, like with John Cena. That would be fun.

    Edwin Jackson is proof that Fangraphs still needs to hammer a few kinks out of the system.

    If Schwarber can stick at catcher... http://www.reactiongifs.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Mother-of_God.gif

    I was momentarily excited that the PTBNL could have been a competitive balance draft pick in 2015, but apparently the A's probably won't have one since a first place finish disqualifies them. :(

    McKinney apparently has pretty good instincts in CF and can play there, but his athletic profile will likely have him end up in LF since he apparently doesn't have much of an arm.
  15. Outshined_One
    I thought McKinney was their 1st rounder in 2013.

    I demand a buddy cop movie. Javier Baez can be the wacky comedic relief.
  17. Outshined_One
    Brian Dopirak and Ryan Harvey.

    I can already hear Steve Stone saying, "...but who's going to pitch for them?" [expletive] it, offenses are down this season and we can trade for anyone we want. I say keep the gravy train going and trade Travis Wood and Edwin Jackson for Byron Buxton.
  19. Outshined_One
    My original guess was Hammel getting flipped.
  20. Outshined_One
    A's fans with mixed to negative reactions I'm a fan.
  21. Outshined_One
    Holy [expletive].
  22. Outshined_One
    So roughly $100k left for anyone else still out there?
  23. Outshined_One
    Baseball at 10 AM feels wrong.
  24. Outshined_One
    Welp, I'm going to need another beer at the rate this is going.
