Amazing stat of the day

Who are the top 4 players in MLB slugging percentage through age 21?

Hint:. #4 is a current guy and recent.

 For #4...

Acuna? Soto? Bellinger?

Juan Soto.  Yep.


,557 SLG over 3 seasons (though less than 320 games)

Had a higher batting average, on base AND slugging than all 4 guys ahead of him in the MVP voting

Deciding on fantasy baseball this year

It allows me to keep track of players, surely.  But of course time consuinmg if you want to be competitive.

I guess GGHF is cooked.  Good 20-year run- of which I am proud,

Now, if he can learn to play better outfield defense, that will move him up the ladder to complete star status.

I like the stealing first base rule

"Well, you have to have a catcher.  Otherwise the ball would go all the way to the backstop"

BoSox new owner: https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/31076745/source-lebron-james-becomes-part-owner-boston-red-sox-joins-fenway-sports-group-partner

Guess he didn't want to be in Cleveland.
He was always adamant he is from Akron. And a Yankees fan.

Well, then this will be a test of his loyalties.
