I am to the point now where I am watching these last 40 or so picks to see who "Mr. Irrelevant" turns out to be.

Yup, I have no doubt that he’ll be quietly signed if not drafted in the later rounds. I’m sure there are several MLB organizations that would be happy to acquire him on the cheap. As a Senior, he was already going to be on the cheap. If he actually gets to negotiate a bonus with more than 1 team, he might actually get a little bit of money instead of the $1-5k that is common to give guys in the later rounds of the draft. He'll still come at a major discount either way. I was thinking more of the draft slot. Now teams won’t have to burn an early round pick (or possibly any pick at all) on him like they would’ve had to before. |

He has no eligibility remaining. He's done in college. Bryce is only a junior. He could come back. Yes, thought Luke was the subject, that's why I deleted it. |

Some interesting picks in that final round. The Marlins took Andrew Miller even though he’s already in the bigs. And oh, look who the Twins took...Ty Webb!! Paging Judge Smails!!! 😆

Re Fehmel. Wouldn’t it be great to have his Senior leadership next season? I’m hoping he does a ‘Matt Boyd’: Matt was 13th round after Jr. season....and 6th round after Sr. season. That’s not to equate their “stuff”. After 20 rounds, Bruce still not picked. I suspect he'll be back next year. What’s the scouting report on Bruce Fehmel? Any chance he pitches in the Supers? 😉 |

Zack Hess just got taken in the 34th round. Was ranked as the #91 prospect coming in to the draft. WOW MLB.com shows him as a 4th year sophomore, maybe he has indicated that he wants another year in college. The "4 YR" notation on the MLB.com site is noting a kid at a 4 year college/university as opposed to a JC. |

First, sensationalized verbiage from the media!?!!?!?!?!? Outrageous! Please tell me that no one in the media eye has ever had to defend against sensationalized verbiage before. Click, click, click, click, click, click. Listen, it's the media's job to sensationalize and build stories around misleading questions. It is what they do. It is like being mad at birds for flying. Lousy jaguar with its spots! Lousy zebra with its stripes. Second, the hysterical responses to standard media clickbait is to a point now that is rather comical. several posters on this board--including you, baseba11--do a better job of defending Heimlich than Heimlich does himself. He has stated that he "pled guilty," which is a "conviction." If Heimlich wanted to avoid the negative press, he should really work on speaking about his past in a less sensationalized way. Well... I could make this long and very drawn out (lets keep it to 3-4 paragraphs), but no need. No one has defended Luke per his actions, or correctly, those he was accused... and also repeatedly denied. A fact you personally omit each and every post. You are fast to mention his word choice in only one respect... the one that supports your personal bias. As far as the media, there are plenty of examples outside of Luke's situation where the media and the sensationalism they try/do create is mentioned and mocked. Again you only focus on this aspect with Luke's case as being why we bring it up. As someone in the legal profession I KNOW you are intelligent enough to realize that Beaver fans will jump on such media frenzy to "protect" their own. As for you personally. You have made it VERY clear you are anti-Luke. You are so bias you keep trying to find any little 'tidbit' to expose it. Trying to get some sort of self gratification I guess?? I just for the life of me don't get it! You've been proven WRONG multitudes of times on this board by both legal experts in the field related to this issue and everyday fans who have taken the time to gather the facts and truths of the actual issue and proceedings. Yet you persist in your immature and caustic posts regarding Luke. As someone that does not deal with this area or the law you certainly have more access to info, and colleagues that are and could provide you some "balance". You do not have to agree with what happened, or even how it was handled. BUT, it is the LAW. Those versed and far superior in their knowledge of that AREA OF THE LAW handled the case on both sides. The LAW was followed to the "T". And, Luke followed up on each and every one of his responsibilities as outlined by the LAW. He was never convicted... he was never found guilty... he no longer has a record... period. AND... most importantly Luke is a shining example of why the LAW exists in the first place. Don't like it, get it changed. By the way, Luke does not need defended, by me or anyone else. And he certainly doesn't need to defend himself... especially to those people so close minded who would only find a way to then attack him again. PS- on another personal side note... other than the Luke posts 99.9% of your posts are research of historical facts, but some you can just let go. NW vs NW St was obviously... well... ok... what about 'driveway' and 'parkway'?? "Driveways" are an Americanized version of the English "Drive." An actual "drive" or a "driveway" is much larger. They were the drive up to a house. With the explosion of the suburban jungle after World War II, driveways in America got shorter and shorter. However, they were called "driveways" as a marketing ploy to help make the houses sound fancier than they actually are. "Parkways" are an American invention. Originally, "parkways" were designed to connect major roads with scenic areas, like parks. Other roads were designated "parkways," because they literally went through parks. Some of the parks and other scenic areas around those roads were subsequently destroyed, leaving several roads with the incongruent "parkway" designation, even though they clearly are no longer a parkway. On top of that, beginning with the early 20th century, starting in New York City, the term "parkway" began to be used for toll roads. The reason this was done was because people associated "parkways" with travelling to or through a park or other scenic area. Toll roads were named "parkways," because the toll road owners believed that more people would travel on a parkway, if it was named a "parkway." Today, because of attempts to market using the word "parkway," much of the original meaning has been lost. The long and the short of the genesis of the words is that driveways and parkways were used to refer to things that used to be awesome. However, they were intentionally corrupted by shrewd businessmen, in order to bilk saps out of money. The sense of the words has now become so corrupted that people point out the apparent contradiction, not knowing that they themselves have been hoodwinked into thinking that the words that they are using are actually referring to the things that they are trying to describe. |
