I don’t understand how voting works to enter the Baseball Hall of Fame (@baseballhall), but I think that Bobby Abreu (@BobKellyAbreu) needs more attention than the percentage it shows! 🇻🇪🇻🇪🇻🇪🇻🇪
The perseverance now #Rays OF @DPFreightTrain6 showed to reach majors was remarkable.
"I will spend the rest of my life trying to find that next David Peralta," said #Dbacks scout Chris Carminucci. “And I can tell you, it’s going to be hard.'' https://t.co/hZL45NZ7Nc
