It’s June 1st, not April 1st.Eh, it’s not like you have a good bunch of former players just standing by to do this sort of thing. You need players recently out of the game, on good terms with your org, who are available at that time to participate. I could see a lot of the 05 guys being too busy to do this or not interested lolHonestly I want to see the Steroid round go down with Alexei and Jose

I would imagine Frank could still hit a few bombs.The line up sucks.

June 2Jun 2 It’s kind of cool that there is a game, then this home run derby, and the draft all in order. They draft Roch and that place is gonna be going crazy
June 2Jun 2 This line up tells you how bad their relationship is with Frank. Also, I don’t think it’s great with post-managing Robin either.

If nothing else, we will learn a lot about the progress of this organization to see how they handle this draft and subsequent development of these guys.
June 2Jun 2 Should invite The Panther...Sosa.I mean, if Canseco's going to be there.Ozzie lolCan Getz actually hit one out?No Thome is a bit strange.Delmonico would be perfect...Engel/Lillibridge.Avi and Abreu might also be strained relationships Edited June 2Jun 2 by caulfield12

June 2Jun 2 Palka's 34 and was playing as recently as 2 years ago. Leury's 35, Gordo's 39, Alexei's 44 and Canseco's 61. Scotty Pods is 50. 19 hours ago, Bob Sacamano said:Yeah it seems like Palka would be the favorite to win right?
