Grant Richardson goes 6 scoreless, 1 hit ball for Grand Canyon. Daniel Avitia enters the game in relief in the 7th.
Taken at the @NB_Baseball @ftrstarsseries Showdown, this is an our message on the business of amateur baseball. I know these sentiment are shared at the highest levels, and by many others out there in the community. This is what we stand for. It’s also why we take bullets, and…
You’re not getting the true baseball experience if you’re not enduring broadcasts where you can count the pixels on the screen and they cut to the worst conceivable camera angles that give you nothing
Some players through age-22 seasons: Jose Ramirez- .644 OPS Ketel Marte- .658 OPS Anthony Volpe- .666 OPS Byron Buxton- .672 OPS Nick Castellanos- .695 OPS Nolan Arenado- .706 OPS Xander Bogaerts- .720 OPS Bobby Witt Jr- .722 OPS Luis Robert- .738 OPS Jordan Walker- .752 OPS
A whole lot of perspectives coming to @FSS_PLUS in the coming weeks. Booth and @OBoctor will shed unique light on their opinions and experiences in taking evaluating talent. Excited for the myriad angles coming to the site.

14” of sweep that AVERAGED 88 MPH over a 7.2 inning outing from a starter should be ILLEGAL. Yeah, Brecht isn’t throwing many strikes this year, but that stuff from that green of a pure athlete belongs in the first round whether he actually starts or not.

You can’t make me not love Dylan Moore. Currently the longest tenured Mariner!
This one took a lot of time to finish, but it was worth it. Mariners fans, check this out, it’ll give you a glimpse into what the Mariners starters are up to.

You all have no idea how bad it truly is.

Even with the rest of the team flailing about offensively, it clearly hasn’t affected Mitch Haniger’s approach at the plate. Not one bit. So nice to have him back in a Mariners uniform. A true professional.

I assume Paul Sewald is still rehabbing. But Eugenio Suárez merits a hearty thank you from the #Mariners this evening. If Sewald is there, he too deserves recognition by the team. Both Sewald and Suárez were so pivotal to the M’s ending the drought. Just my two cents.
I'm back in Durham for my return to the ACC as Florida State visits Duke. Highly touted matchup tonight with Jonathan Santucci/Jamie Arnold slated, plus James Tibbs and Cam Smith are here. My body is ready.
Mina just community notes'd the FUCK out of the Falcons here
Mina Kimes' takedown of the Falcons' selection of Michael Penix Jr: "I find the justification to be somewhat logically incoherent... if you think you're going to be good, which is why you pay Kirk Cousins $100 million guaranteed, you're doing your team a disservice by not making…

Braves prospect Owen Murphy was in complete control last night. Continues to dominate. 7 IP, 1 H, 0 ER, 0 BB, 10 K This season: 24 IP, 3 ER, 6 BB, 37 K Really impressive fastball characteristics, Cristian Javier-esque. Velo and command both 📈this year.
Ordering my jersey asap. Big falcons guy now 🏹

▶️ Hopkins' final line ⬇️ IP: 5⃣ H: 2⃣ R: 1⃣ BB: 2⃣ K: 8⃣ P: 7⃣8⃣ S: 4⃣6⃣ (59%)
▶️ No. 1⃣8⃣ prospect Brody Hopkins had 5⃣ Ks through 2⃣ innings tonight in Modesto.
Jackson Holliday is batting .059 Rutchman didn't reach the big leagues until he was 24. Mountcastle spent 3 years as an average hitter before breaking out in '24. Westburg was 24 when he reached the big leagues & had a worse season than Walker. x.com/godsch1ldren/s…
@BKSportsTalk It’s just frustrating we see our young guys failing and we see for example Orioles young guys having success
Some players through age-22 seasons: Jose Ramirez- .644 OPS Ketel Marte- .658 OPS Anthony Volpe- .666 OPS Byron Buxton- .672 OPS Nick Castellanos- .695 OPS Nolan Arenado- .706 OPS Xander Bogaerts- .720 OPS Bobby Witt Jr- .722 OPS Luis Robert- .738 OPS Jordan Walker- .752 OPS

Saw 6-foot-9 RHP Mavrick Rizy on Saturday. Up to 96 mph in this outing, whiffs on the slider and the splitter for Worcester Academy in Massachusetts. LSU commit and name to know for the 2024 MLB draft.
2024 RHP @OwenHall2024 (@EdNorthBaseball and @VandyBoys Commit) has been pounding the zone early in this one working 95-98 while mixing in a mid 80s SL with feel for spin and a mid 80s CH picking up 4 Ks through 2 IP. @ShooterHunt
‘25 Evan Jones (PA) FB: 92-93 (sizzle down, 2000s) SL: 82-83 (tight, late, +p) CH: 82 (1536, whiff 👀, +p) Loose, whippy arm w/ ath 6’3” 185 frame (some lower-half strength) that projects. Ball explodes out of the hand w/ m2c 👍👍 || @WakeBaseball recruit @PrepBaseballPA
