I believe he's the 10th player of the Marlins to pass away, hard for someone in my 50's to think of a person dying so young

Well yes, but I thought we were all international travelers here

Oh yeah that bastard, you right

A big fan of Dunkin's, but the best doughnuts are usually found at little mom and pop shops. At Dunkin's I'd go Boston Kreme. Anyone else had a maple doughnut from Tim Horton's? Those are pretty good too

Why do they keep trying to change this beautiful game ? It seems they want to see video game baseball, what's next pitching machines instead of pitchers? All batters hit off of tees?!? Designated fielding zones??? I get the 7 inning DH and the runner on second in extra innings to save pitchers arms but enough of this nonsense

There's no DH in 2021 correct? I'm not sure where he would go on this team.

If the team is contention and he's producing in the minors, he could be a great addition, if on the other hand the team isn't in contention I'd prefer they wait and keep his service time down so they don't have to start the arbitration clock. Either way he'll be in The Show for good come 2022

Queenville has the team going in the right direction, they should make the playoffs in this years division which is kinda weak other than Tampa Bay, not sure how they'd be doing if they were playing Boston and Toronto on the regular instead of Detroit and Chicago

That's just part of the business of the game, hopefully he gets a shot somewhere else

The Bucs are the closest team to my location but one of the furthest from heart, I'm old enough to remember when the Dolphins were the only NFL team in Florida and I haven't changed my allegiance despite a lot of lean years, plus as Phins fan F*@k Tom Brady

If Colorado doesn't get third base prospect Nolan Gorman they're screwing the pooch on this deal

I'm sure he'll thank the Marlins for giving him an opportunity in his Hall of Fame acceptance speech

I believe Trevor Bauer has also alleged this about Cole his former college teammate and apparently there's a huge grudge between the two, an interesting insight though on how this is done

I always liked Baker's work ethic, saw him in a Spring Training game hit a routine pop up in the infield and he hauls ass down to first heading to second when the ball just drops in and he's standing there with a double! Seems like he has a good head for the game so I hope he succeeds there.

That sucks the Florida State League will be low A, going to miss seeing better prospects locally

My first memory of Tommy was in my set of 1977 Topps, he was for sure a baseball lifer

At this point I'm probably going to have get games from whomever is broadcasting them through MLB, as of now with Sinclair making it impossible to get the games through streaming services

This is awesome for a farm fan like myself, I usually would get to games in GCL, FSL and Jax so I can now make a long drive to Pensacola too!!! Now if they'll just let us in to go to games

I can't recall a manager in the Hall of Fame coming out of retirement to manage again. Obviously he has credentials for the job, maybe he'll hire McKeon for the staff

Tommy Phelps is one of the nicest guys I've ever met , glad to have him back in the organization!

This one hurts for sure, I'm one of those old folks that remember Joe as a player, a back to back MVP and the catalyst for the Big Red Machine as much as Rose or Bench, he was a joy to watch with his little arm flap at the plate and blazing speed on the base paths. It's startling to see so many great players dying as such an alarming rate recently especially these guys I watched as a kid.

I'm more surprised he didn't call it a strike
