It's why I ultimately see no ramifications from the players union grievances over Aiken/Nix. MLB players couldn't care less about draft picks, their struggles, or them being screwed over by teams. In their minds, they all have to face hardships to become established MLB players.
I don't doubt it. Players talk a lot of ****. Ultimately it doesn't matter if Appel gets straightened out.
We know Brian Smith feels like it was it a slap in the face to the players, though he needs to stick to his job. I get the feeling Tags heard it. He said he couldn't report anything negative that a player says off the record.
D.J. Fisher went 4-5 with 4 runs scored for Tri-City, and J.D. Davis went 4-5 with a double, an RBI, and 2 runs scored for Quad Cities today.
Tri-City keeps dominating even as players get promoted. While this draft sucked for what happened on losing out on two promising HS pitchers, the college position players could be very good.
JJO is not going to make up a quote like that jesus christ get real some of yall. thatd be a huge thing to make up

Kent Emanuel had a solid outing last night as he went 7 innings and allowed 2 runs on 3 hits, walked 2, and struck out 7 in Lancaster's 8-3 win over Stockton.
The Astros really are doing their damndest to lose their fanbase. I can't ever remember a bad team being this easy to dislike.
