@BaseballWRLD_ Logan Gilbert?

I just closed the trade at a profit of 11.93% https://t.co/ZbUYvILMPk

[Ian Blease ⚾🇬🇧 @Bleasedog]

@bsuk There is a strong chance I'm blind but I can't see the salary listed there.

[Ian Blease ⚾🇬🇧 @Bleasedog]

But the most frustrating, and it's a judgement call so nothing can be done, the play that drove in the winning run should have been called out on strikes the pitch before. The pitch was ever-so-slightly south of "down the pipe" but called a ball. 🤬

A bad umpire can ruin games.

[Ian Blease ⚾🇬🇧 @Bleasedog]

The team I coach suffered a tough walk-off loss today. It's fair to say that we've played better but we deserved more from the game. And I genuinely hate to say it, but the umpire was terrible and directly benefited the other team on several occasions. 1/2

[Ian Blease ⚾🇬🇧 @Bleasedog]

The opposing pitcher balked on a successful pickoff. He received a warning for the balk, but the out stood. 🤷🏻

A fielder picked up a ball in fair territory while standing in foul territory, he threw a runner out at 2B. Called out. 😤

Multiple other balls not called. 😡
2/3

Last month, I celebrated making the final payment on my student loan... This month, they took an extra payment out of my salary anyway. Brilliant. #studentloans #studentdebt

Been around baseball my entire life, 49 years. After the World Series & the start of the WBC, I’ve never seen baseball this popular. Seeing the World gravitating towards this sport has been great to see. #WBC @MLBPA

[Ian Blease ⚾🇬🇧 @Bleasedog]

Another great day with this team!

With a place in @BUCSsport Nationals already confirmed, I set them a challenge to maintain their perfect record and finish the regular season with 20 wins, no losses... And they rose to this magnificently!

Now to bring that 🏆 home.

[Ian Blease ⚾🇬🇧 @Bleasedog]

Awful trade without an extension, even with one I'd say this is questionable.

[Dodgers Nation @DodgersNation]

Roki Sasaki is headlining a proposed trade package for the Dodgers to land Tarik Skubal, per @bleacherreport

What are your thoughts?

[Ian Blease ⚾🇬🇧 @Bleasedog]

Looking forward to returning to @GB_Baseball tomorrow to help out with the @GBbaseballwomen session down in Coventry. 🇬🇧⚾🦁
