Awesome

I’d heard some chatter that Robbie Shields was either close to signing or was signed but haven’t seen anything official yet. Heard anything on him Eric? Also, where the hell is this Aderlin kid. He hasn’t played in a game yet, at least not that I’ve noticed. I want my shiny new IFA!

Shields

Per this article, Shields was expected to sign with the Mets on Tuesday. The source of this intel? His mom.

LOL

That’s hilarious. I love my mom, but I really hope she’s never talking to the press about me for any reason whatsoever. Anyway, eyes peeled on the Clones. Next up, bring me Matz and Magnifico!

Well, good for Joey.

Although I was looking forward to seeing him play in Brooklyn this summer. Those 7 ABs must have been really impressive.

Ah crap

Joey was one of the few people I knew on the team that I can follow so far. Until the top draftees sign, Bouchard and Doyle are the only ones. Saw Oliver, though

I’m kicking myself for never watching Holt pitch.
