Vols in MLB Update

[6-4-3]

Still blows my mind with numbers like this that Hunley is still in AA.

Rays org is loaded. So that’s the main reason I think. No room. But, I believe he just got promoted to AAA.

 

[ArdentVol]

That send Senzel back to minors.

trey starting again sunday

On the one hand, I appreciate Garrett is doing well and playing for my favorite team.

On the other, he needs to get the hell off that terrible team. The Sox can’t see the light at the end of the tunnel without dumping some completely unprofessional professional baseball players and the extended contracts they’re on.

I’m assuming the Sox will eventually get a deal they can’t turn down.

In fact, both these guys need to play for teams with better futures

Important to understand that going to a less favorable team in the draft gives a player a better chance of moving up the ranks and into the show a lot faster. I think that's the case with Joyce. As for Crochet, he was #11 overall and the Sox were actually a playoff team around the time he was drafted.

At some point they all move on so it's just a matter of time.

Absolute GAS from Ben Joyce: The fastest pitch of the year!

ANAHEIM -- Don’t blink. You might just miss one of Ben Joyce's fastballs. Joyce has been lighting up radar guns yet again this season, including uncorking a 104.5 mph fastball in a scoreless seventh inning of the Angels’ 6-5 win over the Mariners in 10 innings on Friday, the hardest

And then finishes him with a nasty 87 mph slider.

Nick Senzel released by Washington Nationals.

Poor guy just can’t stick anywhere.

Love him to death, but he needs to take things more seriously.

At least Lane is still there, quiet kid growing up.

I love the quotes from Ron Washington, especially the very last sentence...

I played with him, 2 years ahead of him in school.

Again, love the guy, we still talk every once in a while, but he needs to grow up.

Coach Buckner actually kicked him off the HS team but that didn’t last long lol

Unbelievable! That’s extremely disappointing.
So you think he just doesn’t put in the work?
You think that has contributed to his constant health problems?

i definitely think that’s what it is.

Don’t know about his time at UT but I can’t imagine it was tough considering he and Serrano were best buddies.

If you were part of those ‘11-‘12 Farragut teams, kudos to you because those squads were loaded!!
Trippie, did you play college ball?

You’re talking about how he was in HS and saying that’s his problem still today? Who knows…maybe it is. But I’m a very different person that I was in HS.
