Josh Thole: Too Good for the Venezuelan Winter League
After going 2 for 4 with his third HR of the season, in 37 games, Thole is now hitting .392 / .493 / .584. He leads the league in AVG, OBP, OPS, and doubles, and has a crazy 24/13 BB/K. He's sixth in walks, and his 3 HR are more than he's hit in any stateside professional season save his 2008 in the FSL. He's also among the league leaders with 17 total XBH. He's essentially the Joe Mauer of the VWL.

I think it's safe to say
that Josh Thole is going to be the greatest catcher of all time.
"We must win and we must know how to win rather than win because we have statistical people."
Josh Thole is also going to be the greatest
pitcher,shortstop, outfielder, wide receiver, power forward, goalie (in both soccer and hockey), senator, rock star, astronaut, planet, and cartoon character of all time.
"Solo homers usually come with no one on base." -Ralph Kiner
I beg to differ
I see them replacing Uranus with Thole so as to put an end to the “Aliens Come From Uranus” jokes.
Beer is good! And stuff!
Livan was a planet.

By the way
Thole is too good for the VWL, it seems, but the Mets want to be sure and keep him there until he gets kidnapped or something.
I'm just happy he wasn't kidnapped.
