Toothpaste for the Soul

scout by day…

[Toothpaste for the Soul @JesusdeNegro]

@CoachKwall31 @4xgoldenratio @CoachMorgado 1. On paper sure. In real life said player absolutely gets paid for their performance. I’ve heard from players and coaches alike how it goes.

I’m paying you to perform and if you don’t, there’s specific language used to persuade players to leave.

2. Huh?

[Toothpaste for the Soul @JesusdeNegro]

@jbslindenwald @shegone03 Nah. Look at your statement.

The quality of the league is / was based off the participation of FORMER pros.

Thats the stigma you’re fighting, what would Indy leagues look like if those with actual affiliated time ceased to exist?

In-between riding coattails and desperation

@CasinoJack3 @PrinxeHitEmUp @JeffStanek1 Not going to comment on the conditions or level of play BUT in the world of MLB those guys are throwaways. Pitchers aside*

For multiple reasons, a main one? The industry doesn’t like to be wrong.

[Toothpaste for the Soul @JesusdeNegro]

@acevegas50 @gerrybrown59 @JeffStanek1 High level is subjective.

Players with accomplished backgrounds usually are old and hanging on.

Or players didn’t get drafted and this is there only option.

Either way, odds or the stench of Indy ball does not work in one’s favor

[Toothpaste for the Soul @JesusdeNegro]

@JeffStanek1 @CasinoJack3 Right, people need to make the distinction between affiliated baseball and everything else.

Semi pro = non affiliated baseball

Pro = affiliated baseball

[Toothpaste for the Soul @JesusdeNegro]

@JeffStanek1 Indy ball is professional baseball for those who have no shot at affiliated baseball. An island of misfit toys if you will.

If you get released and want to prove yourself, that’s something diff. Sorta.

But to act like it’s viewed or respected as a viable option to the Show?

So why aren't we doing better? Why is inflation rising? Why is the food making us sick? Where are the jobs? Why is fuel and gas prices rising? Where's the health-care? Why are we at war?

@Efernandez0415 @ZacCole_ Just doubling back to ask what TSC closer was up to 96? And did he throw on scout day?

[Toothpaste for the Soul @JesusdeNegro]

@Efernandez0415 @ZacCole_ What guy was up to 96 at TSC? Did he throw at pro day? 🤔

@ChrisNowak83 @KyleBea96359130 @danjaques96 @Chapel14Billy @longball7878 @sean0murphy @Teacherman1986 @uTeeBaseball Read through this thread, I’d say you come across as pedantic but that’s too good for you. Terrible look

[Toothpaste for the Soul @JesusdeNegro]

[Toothpaste for the Soul @JesusdeNegro]

@collegeplayers9 He didn’t disappoint you? We’ll find out soon how teams feel. Was supposed to be top 3 rounder, now it’s looking like 3rd - 6th round as a money saver. Prob closer to rounds 4 & 5

Back end rotation type with lower FB velo and fair pitchability that is supported by his plus CH

[Chicago Cubs @Cubs]

The #Cubs select 1B Myles Bailey of @FSUBaseball with the 75th overall pick of the #MLBDraft.

[Toothpaste for the Soul @JesusdeNegro]

@kobeNole to his 29 walks for a positive BB to K ratio…
also has near 80 grade raw power and can really defend

Hitting .361 with an OPS nearing 1.500

The dude is a possible 1st rounder staring 7 figures in the face

Glazing? These are facts whether you like it or not
