  1. I would assume that any true Talksox Notre Dame fans would have known this already.
  2. Ok, so it seems like the reduction to 5 MLB draft rounds last year combined with a COVID shortened 2020 season, caused NCAA to grant some extensions for certain players. This includes an additional year of eligibility as players were allowed to redshirt for 2020. I guess ND allowed Niko to redshirt for last year? This is the last year that any senior would be granted an extension due to COVID. Maybe this is why he fell to the 11th round? IDK.
  3. Many thought Kavadas would hear his name much sooner. He went into the draft as MLB.com’s No. 135 overall prospect. If Kavadas is not happy with what he's offered to sign for, he's eligible to return to Notre Dame for one more season. He didn’t rule that possibility out with BlueandGold.com in an interview last week. “Notre Dame is such a special place for me,” Kavadas said. “I would love to be able to come back and play a fifth year here and play for such a competitive program. If the right opportunity doesn’t present itself, it’s unbelievable I have the chance to come back and compete for a national championship with this brotherhood that we’ve developed over the last four years.” Why does he have a 5th year of eligibility?
  4. You're just going to have to get on board Kimmi. The robo ump train is leaving the station with or without you.
  5. He wasn't redshirted. How does he have a 5th year of eligibility?
  6. He will not get an above slot deal. He has no leverage as a college senior.
  7. How I learned to love the Worcester jet stream.
  8. I trust Bloom to evaluate talent. I don't see a fit with Berrios though. Bloom still values long term production and I don't think he'll be so quick to cut off his nose.
  9. It's hard to say his career norm should be what we saw in 2020. It's probably some amalgamation of what he's shown this year.
  10. Yes, it definitely helps when you can find All Stars off the scrap heap.
  11. Hats off to their scouting department.
  12. Yes, too soon to call for both of them. Cora may be in the conversation with Tito though.
  13. It's July 14th. There's no way he starts a game this year unless the plan is for him to only go 3 innings. They are not going to stretch him out. Maybe his best role is as a bulk reliever type? I don't think anyone would have been upset at that profile this offseason.
  14. In terms of aesthetics he's probably talking about the shift. Entertainment wise is probably the lack of runs. What's pleasing for fans is obviously installing robot umps and pitch clocks immediately.
  15. The longer we have Manfred, the worse he looks. I thought Selig was the bottom of the barrel. He wasn't.
  16. It's a gorilla wearing a Theo suit now.
  17. College seniors rarely go unsigned unless the team has run out of budget room or the player just doesn't want to play baseball anymore.
  18. It would have been funny if their last selection was a Catcher though.
  19. @JeffFletcherOCR The #Angels have completed their 20 selections in the draft, and here's a summary. P P P P P P P P P P P P P P P P P P P P
  20. Controversial take: David Ortiz was good. https://www.boston.com/sports/boston-red-sox/2016/10/15/every-david-ortiz-walk-off/
  21. They walked him 4 times in game 6. That's how good he was.
  22. https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/b/benoijo01.shtml 207 ERA+ in regular season, then Papi makes him famous. https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/w/wainwad01.shtml Runner up for CY https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/s/siegrke01.shtml 832 ERA+ in regular season, Papi hit a bomb off him
