As you may have seen on our fine website yesterday, FanGraphs has ranked the Cleveland baseballing prospects. The Jones-McKenzie-Valera trio is 1-2-3.
As Jason Kipnis has noticed, not much is happening, but we do have a few links following this brief message from the GOAT:
A week late but I’d like to thank the Padres for that small bit of excitement! Refreshing to see! MLB offseason have become the worst in terms of action and keeping fans excited..Also..when the hell are we starting this year? Feb? March? It’d be nice to let us know maybe... @MLB
