Chicago Cubs
Recently ranked the 7th best 2B prospect in baseball: https://t.co/GJPwfVOe5o
The standout Cubs offensive prospect at Instructs this fall was Chase Strumpf, who showed all-fields power and starting 2B caliber defense. If he starts 2021 in A-ball, I predict a short stay. https://t.co/j9chHr9o2w

I hope the Blue Demons had security to prevent a young @EliHershkovich from 🤜 the unnamed current head coach 🙄
That time @EliHershkovich went "eye-to-eye" with a coach.... 😂

The annual New York BBWAA Awards Dinner - which would have been this week - was of the many events canceled due to the pandemic. It’s been one of my favorite nights of the year ever since my first one in 2007. Looking forward to being back there next year. (Pics from 2020 event)

Back in 2012, after winning his 15th consecutive decision over two seasons, Nova said: "If you ask me, 'Who's the best pitcher in the world?' I say, 'Me.' You know, you have to believe it. That's why you win so many games." One of my favorite quotes ever.
Ivan Nova has signed a minor-league deal with the Phillies, source confirms. He'll earn $1.5 million if he makes the club. First: @BNightengale

I love Coby and Pat Williams, but they've definitely been a bit off their game lately.

Mets, Nats, and Phillies all making moves. Must mean those liberal coastal elites don’t follow the gospel of biblical losses being preached in the Midwest.
Brad Hand's career hitting stats, just for fun...
-- .069 career hitter (5-for-72)
-- Zero extra-base hits
-- All 5 hits = ground-ball singles
-- But the hits were off Derek Lowe, Chien-Ming Wang, Johnny Cueto, Kyle Hendricks and Stephen Strasburg

If you want to feel good about baseball today, I have a suggestion.
Go look up Adrián Beltré’s @baseball_ref page and marvel at an amazing career. His last 10 years were better than his first 10 (😱)!
Then go to YouTube and watch Adrian Beltre funny moments.
You’re welcome.
Have I mentioned that Ian Happ is just a good dude?
So happy to be a part of this project and help spread the word for this great organization!! @FirstTeeChicago https://t.co/FbLsBPUoLp
Also gets 100K for Comeback. That would be a neat trick for Hand, who was brilliant last year.
Could you imagine what would have to happen for him to win a Silver Slugger? Especially if they eventually go to a DH? Should be way more than $50k https://t.co/prJ2b5JOeJ
