Thought USM would fall off a bit with the coach retiring. Glad they kept it rolling.. a lot of times mid majors don’t recover from lifers calling it a career like that

[Volprofch05]

Zero cap space home slice..

How’s that even possible?

 

[knoxvol52]

How’s that even possible?

Well if you call 12 to 15 million cap space.

Cowboys were over $12 million a couple weeks ago.

Martin redone his deal, still got to pay Cee Dee , Micah and Dak

People asking if he’s vaxxed in the replies obviously don’t know much about the 80’s Mets lol. I hope he recovers well. It’s sad that Doc never cleaned up and still has issues to this day.

I’ve said it elsewhere but my late uncle and Mookie Wilson played at the same JUCO in Spartanburg, and were friends. Because of that and the inside stories I was raised on, I’ve always had this kind of movie like view of the 86 Mets.

That, in a nutshell, is exactly why I keep and love ESPN+.

I've watched more low production quality, sub .500, random college and/or west coast baseball than any human should consume.

For the more connected and knowledgeable folks on this board! Do we have the arm strength on the pitching staff to hang with the big boys this year? I watch a lot due to the local COMCAST SECN+ offerings, but just can't compare last year's staff to this year's staff? Obviously miss the big guy who went east a bit, and a ton of other experience left as well, but that does not rule out some younger guys being ABLE to step up as the season progresses. What say the more informed? How do we stack up with the rest of the SEC?

I'm not one of the more informed, but I anticipate we will have very good pitching this year. We will know all the names well by the end of the season.

I'm not positive but it looks like the Ashville Tourist ballpark. I've been to many games there, the roof structure looks similar, and the backdrop is similar as it sits in a bowl-type setting. I do not feel good about it, but it's my best guess.........

That's my guess too. McCorkmick field.

Read about it in Ryan McGee's book about working in minor league ball. (Worth looking at if you haven't).

I would have felt better if it wasn’t your first guess.
But you got it right.
Amazing,
