Why?

 

[biggunsbob]

[biggunsbob]

Why?

I'm just salty AL gets 8 years to do jack shit.

Mitch you do know there is a Draft Thread??

I'm just salty AL gets 8 years to do jack shit.

Most people picked him as a top ten draftee so I don't think we can blame Al for that.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Mitch you do know there is a Draft Thread??

No.

 

[biggunsbob]

Btw
What draft picks that AL has picked helped us get over .500 ?
I guess we should give him credit for a great bullpen and a 19 under
.500 team we have right now

One more coming up but that's it.

 

[Mitchrapp]

No.

To clarify I looked but didn't see it. Didn't dawn on me to look at the stickies.

 

[kalinecountry]

You're kidding me? for someone who is here every day?

Sorry I didn't notice it was there. I'm not here every day, am I.

Another good college bat. Really thought they'd take the hometown hs pitcher Brock Porter here. He was mocked to the tigers at 12 in many mocks. Not sure why he's fallen so far.
