Huge thank you to Rhett Williams and G and R Excavating for their surprise donation of Guardian caps for our entire team. Keeping our players safe is a top priority and their kindness helps us to do so. We are grateful!
A parent asked me the other day how come Pearson's just going Juco?
I laughed.
D1 Juco is where the big boys go to build a resume. College coaches at that level are elite at roster construction and evaluation. You're not sliding in as a freshman and starting. You're competing against some of the best talent in the country.
Out of 300+ D1 NCAA baseball programs, D1 Juco is on par with or better than the majority of them. 200 of those D1 schools would struggle to compete with a D1 Juco program heads up.
This isn't a consolation path. This is the right path for athletes who are serious about what comes next.
Pearson's ready. Cincinnati first. Then we go get it.

@Ocon54@Kwen_C I understand what they are doing, hurts losing a first ballot HOF. Feels like the pick will be later in the 1st. I see the vision just hurts.
Browns got a extra 1st & 2nd back and a Mason Graham for moving back from 2 to 5 in the draft
no way you can spin me Jared Verse and a 1st a decent comp for the best defensive player of his generation
this is awful man
in few years the Browns (if they are lucky) are gonna get the privilege of paying Jared Verse the same money Myles is getting to likely be half the player that Myles is.
and we get a pick 30 in the draft
lol what the fuck man
I have never seen an animal commit suicide.
I find it interesting that animals, especially apex predators, don't appear to conceptualize “hopelessness” the way humans do.
Even at the brink of death, they fight, bite, claw, and persist without turning their suffering into despair.
Juco baseball is no joke! Do you know what four year schools like juco players? Because they know how to grind. To survive and thrive you must embrace the suck of it all, and love it
I’ve been watching a lot of the Juco World Series this week on ESPN+, and it’s the purest form of baseball I’ve seen in ages. No K zone. No radar gun. Dodgy field. Just guys chasing dreams and a ring. I couldn't love it more. Especially considering this is who’s pitching tonight.
Charlie Munger, the Stoic: "Life will have terrible blows in it. Horrible blows. Unfair blows. It doesn't matter. And some people recover and others don't."
"There, I think the attitude of Epictetus is the best. He thought that every mischance in life was an opportunity to behave well. Every mischance in life was an opportunity to learn something. Your duty was not to be submerged in self-pity, but to utilize the terrible blow in a constructive fashion."
