The #MilbDaily Thread - 8/11 (Stephenson Promoted)
I find it amazing that there are all of 5 (FIVE!) Stephenson chrome autos of any kind on ebay right now. Is it that a lot of people have a bunch, or just one person buying all of them up? I have one chrome stephenson auto that I pulled from my only box of draft (and was disappointed at the... -

Sonny Gray to make first Start on Satuday (at Toronto)
I watched most of it as well, though not in person. only real issue (besides the errors) was some lack of fastball control early and getting behind batters. He spotted the FB well mostly but also allowed himself to walk an uncharacteristic amount of guys and get behind a few batters... -

Ryan Newell of the Batavia Muckdogs lost a ho hit bid in the top of the ninth after throwing 8 innings of 1-walk ball. -

2013 Perfect Game All-American Classic Thread...
Bellinger and Sheffield, the two Vanderbilt commits. If anyone at the game is able to get an extra signed card of either Justin Bellinger or Justus Sheffield, please (please) pm me. -

How many times have you thought about adding another player to your collection ?
whenever a new player with cards or gu items for sale matriculates at Vanderbilt. It was a lot cheaper for me when it was just David Price and Jeremy Sowers. -

The #MilbDaily Thread - 8/9
Any Mike Hauschild or Blair Walters prospectors? each gave up 10 runs in less than an inning. Though to be fair to Hauschild, only 6 were earned. Baseball is a rough game sometimes. -

Does getting a player auto IP change how you feel about pack pulled autos?
True, but when I talk to non-collectors and I say things like 'Oh, I have Bryce Harper's autograph', they tend to ask things like how I met him, what he is like in person and whatever. and when I respond 'oh, i just bought a pack of cards and it was in it', they lose interest. Whereas when I... -

The #MilbDaily Thread - 8/9
Well, that bio is just copy/pasted from his bio at vucommodores.com. I have no idea why the site used it for him, but for no other Vandy player. I would imagine in a few years the Astros will trade Altuve for a group of prospects because on of Kemp, Torreyes or DeShields will be ready to... -

The #MilbDaily Thread - 8/9
Tony Kemp, 2013 2B draftee out of Vandy, also homered in that inning. Recently moved up from Tri City. Could be the future double play combo for Houston. Nice to see both adjusting well. -

Sonny Gray to make first Start on Satuday (at Toronto)
Melvin is saying he'll be in the rotation until he's not, and that if he is successful, they'll keep him up. Seems like more than just a spot start. Very excited for him. -

Does getting a player auto IP change how you feel about pack pulled autos?
So, over the past couple years, I've made it a point to get as many different player autos as possible at the few minor league games I've attended. I think I have about 215 different autos at this point. I think I've only gotten about 5 doubles, so that is quite a few players, though I am... -

Sonny Gray to make first Start on Satuday (at Toronto)
Lots of blog speculation to that effect, some Vandy fan sources saying he's already gotten the call. -

Don't we have some Vinnie Catricala fans here?
Struck out on one pitch recently http://deadspin.com/minor-league-baseball-player-strikes-out-on-one-pitch-1014450914 I knew about this rule because I used to umpire little league and was a crazy person in terms of learning all the rules. Never seen it in a game before. crazy. -

Topps Redemption Replacement Mailday
So, here's something that just dawned on me about this topps redemption fiasco. I just bought a Panini redemption card without thinking twice about it. Why? because redemptions only suck if you don't trust that the company will do right by you. I bought this redemption (a basketball card... -

At what price would you buy a rod Rc's?
i might buy a nice looking on card auto at some point. i mean, roider schmuck or not, he's part of baseball history. and i collect cards because i like baseball history. to say he ruined the game or destroyed the integrity of the game is hogwash. he certainly has a ton of warts, but he... -

Pirates PC Show it off!!!
Man, looks like I got off decently. I received an Austin Jackson TTT auto (which I sold for $21) and a Stanton Gold Rush Sticker auto, which at least is from a real set. Think I got $50 for it, if memory serves. Embarrassing that they are not only the stewards of baseball cards in the Hobby... -

Bud Norris to the Orioles for L.J. Hoes & more
Bummed for Hader. He is a local kid from not too far outside of Baltimore. I would wager that he was more excited to play in the Baltimore organization that he will be in Houston. -

The #MilbDaily Thread - 7/28
I know on MILB they don't track pitch counts. Anyone know if he's hitting 100 pitches around 5 ip? I see a lot of his outings end around 5 IP. I love high K numbers as much as the next guy, but I'd also like to see him get deeper into games. All this said, I'm definitely holding my... -

Facing a ban? Go to Hooters
I want a signed version of this. As a friend of mine said when I showed this to him, "has anyone ever had as fast and as full a fall from grace as Arod? a mere 5 years ago, he was the guy that was going to remove the taint of steroids from all the HR records". And now he's at a Hooters in... -

Can anyone help with this?
From the UD USA Box set in 2008. I have a Pedro Alvarez like that. Numbered 5/7, but is the letter R, the 5th in his name. Should have full GU info on the back, right? -

Francisco Rodriguez Traded to the Orioles For Nicky Delmonico
Nicky Delmonico always seemed to me to be a later version of Nolan Reimold. I did love his plate discipline (all the walks) and his decent power. Seems a lot to give up for a 7th/8th inning guy. Especially one so damn hard to root for. -

Are you a diehard fan of more than one baseball team?
Commodores and O's. I'm a fan of the players that played at Vandy and now play for other teams. I suppose I'm at best conflicted when they come up against each other. I think in baseball it is easier to root for an opposing player to play well and lose, since losses happen all the time and...
