    Missed grabbing Damon's HR on Fri night by a half an arm length in right field on Eutaw. Got the best jump on the ball and got a bad bounce. Worst part was nobody was there cause of the rain. Anyone ever catch a baseball? Shit has eluded me my entire life. Will be back in June for the Reds series...

    Good shit. Vlad up to .285. AJ up to .284, been red hot this month.

    <3 Hardy and Weiters.

    5-1 last 6. Feels good. Only 1 under .500 now.

    The bats are going to keep improving, if the pitching holds up then I think we might finally see a .500 season.

    Looking good tonight so far

    Hitting looks to be heating up. Pitching needs to get better. 1-5 now have very respectable averages.

    Guerrero over .300 now. Somehow Hardy has dropped over 100 points recently though.

    Snyder looks good.

    People need to quit trying to run on Weiters. Lost cause. Not a huge baseball follower but he might be the best I've seen.

    Sweep by Oakland. 3 games under now. Had a chance to win all of them. Today was the worst. Went up 4-1 on a 4 run 5th then bottom of the 5th gave 4 right back to Josh Willingham of all people. Pathetic.

    I like the Bundy pick, not all that excited about esposito, love grabbing Rod Delmonicos son. I think Ruettinger is a solid pick as well other than that I dont know enough about a lot of the guys sadly.

    Yeah, he's a big bama fan and they didn't offer him as much scholarship money so he choose Southern Miss. He likes them, but he's one of those dudes who's always dreamed of this. I dont see him passing it up. I think he signs but his parents Rick and Diane may want him to go to school but I think theyll let him make his own decision in the end.

    Np :heythere:

    Ive watched and played with him my whole life, but im not really a scout or analyst type of dude but the things I can say about his game is that he has a beautiful swing. He's a power hitter in HS, but at the next level I think he needs to hit the weight room and get stronger to translate that power. He was ranked #3 player in AL iirc, him and Jamal(Golden, Georiga Tech football signee/Mr. Football in AL) were both top 5. Wetumpka, although Cubs drafted Reggie Golden in 2nd round last year, doesn't get visited by scouts very often so we have alot of athletes go under the radar as far as colleges go but Bradley has been to alot of showcases and invited to different camps. He pitched alot(I believe 2 16 strikeout games this year) but I dont see him being a pro pitcher. Has some high 80s speed, maybe low 90s on a good day. I think he'll stay at 3B or SS. He's solid in the field, covers alot of ground mainly because he just has natural instincts for getting good jumps on the ball.

    Last week he went to Minutemaid Field and had infield hit to him by Craig Bigioo from the Astros.

    Yall picked a couple of my buddies yesterday. Matt taylor in the 5th and adam matthews in the 23rd. Matthews is a top 8 round talent but a hamstrings been messing him up this year. A few teams were still gonna take him that high but he wouldn't budge on his cash

    I'm not so excited about our #1 pick. The kid could not have looked less excited about being picked by the O's. Talent is undeniable, but I'm wondering if we are going to be able to sign him.
