Legitimately he does not sleep well on the road because beds are too small for him. He’s gotta get like a tour bus or something. He looks like he can’t see the ball or react on the road which is not explained by park factors. NO SLEEP! (or he’s just cheating on his gf tbh) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mission27 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 A couple days ago by the way he was hitting .295. Couple bad days and his average dipped into the 270s. But it’ll be back up and he’s still on pace for like 8 WAR which I would very much consider “repeating last year” and a major success. Hes honestly been the most consistent player on the team, even when his average has fluctuated from .270-.310 he’s contributing in all facets of the game. Total stud.

MWil23 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 What are the odds that Cleveland loses Hankins to Vandy? Since he's a high 2nd round pick, I'd assume that he'll go to Cleveland, but you never know I guess. He's had injury concerns, but I feel like the kid would be a Top 5-Top 10 lock without them. Maybe I'm wrong though. We basically got him for letting Santana walk, so not bad compensation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MWil23 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Just now, ramssuperbowl99 said: Everybody in the top 10 rounds signs now. I figured as much. I remember my buddy Justin Masterson was drafted in the 2nd round by the BoSox back in the mid 2000s and signed, and he was a 4.0 student in college for his first 3 years and really wanted his degree. He signed almost immediately and figured he'd go back to school or do correspondence work. Considering the hundreds of thousands of dollars those guys are guaranteed, plus some of them being guaranteed tuition money if things don't work out, I feel like that's an absolute no brainer.

It's a CBA thing now. If a guy didn't sign previously in the no-pool era, it didn't matter. Now you lose the bonus slot at that pick, and teams are using one pick's bonus pool money to sign the other guy, so that means they have to have agreements beforehand. Everybody signs. Until round 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mse326 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 We'll have to disagree about that @ramssuperbowl99 I don't see any principled reason to treat sports differently than any other job. So the only reason to say he shouldn't be able to play is to say he shouldn't be able to have any job and that is just unacceptable. He's ultimately paid whatever price the justice determined he needed to and now is free to be in society with all that provides which includes being able to get a job. In fact getting a job is among the top things they want you to do after your time is served as it that lessens recidivism. The only thing that complicates it a bit for me is him now denying it happened after having apologized for it not long before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want him on my team regardless, and am freely admitting that part of it is because I don't want my team to have a child predator. I don't want to have to choose between rooting for a child predator and rooting for the Brewers. But he plead guilty in front of a judge who made sure he know what that meant, never denied anything, and then the second this starts to impact him, he calls the family and little kid who stood up to him liars. That's sociopathic. I sincerely hope the fanbase of any team who takes him revolts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think before the season, he was a top 20 prospect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
