    Recruiting high school kids means creating relationships. Even if they don't choose you the first time, it makes the transfer portal game a bit easier.

    If you are at Cracker Barrel, you could be in a Store. Just sayin'

    Illinois #13 in 2/26 AP Poll

    If I had to guess, I'd say 11 or 12. Not a lot of losing in the top 12 other than KU. No losses 8-12 this week, but this win at WU should count significantly enough to maybe leap over someone.

    I know that was a bad play, but did anyone notice the clock getting stuck? That shouldn't have counted IMO.

    I would like to see them sign Montgomery. I like the way he pitches and he seems pretty durable. I want to see Flaherty continue to have success so we can trade him for a good young starting pitcher. Trades tend to be the way we build things if the farm system isn't getting it done. We may get a...

    2 days off will be welcomed! It's been a long few weeks. I'm hoping we get a nice recharge and surge to 1st place in the central by the All Star Break!

    I heard it was because he actually wasn't originally in the movie but added later. Very underrated baseball announcer movie role. Every time I hear Bob Uecker for the Brewers, I expect him to say more funny stuff, but he is pretty straight laced and professional in his real job.

    I heard John Candy from Rookie of the Year when I read this.

    From what I understand, Mo is most likely going to be gone at the conclusion of the Roger Dean Stadium upgrade project. I also am not calling for them to be gone. We have seen an Atlanta Braves '90s-'00s type run with having competitive clubs every year, I would not be surprised to see us end...

    That was a pretty tough luck loss last night. In the 7th, we had Arenado on 1st with Carlson up. Carlson watched ball 4 get called a strike, hits into DP the next pitch, then the next 2 guys hit solid singles. Then in the 8th, Noot hits a game tying double that bounces over the fence, so the 5th...

    I think it would be more likely for Cards to go after "cheaper" options. If they want to make a run for a few years, putting up the money for Bieber and another big bat via trade seems more likely to me. Then you would have a championship window that opens for a couple years. Which may happen...

    I would make that trade in a heartbeat...but only if we can get him for 4+ years. Can't just give up the farm for one chance at it.
