    I just learned something really cool (at least, to me). My buddy's dad when I was a kid was a former major league pitcher named Don Rose. He pitched a couple years as a reliever for the Angels and another organization or two. But here's the cool part:

    Don Rose hit a home run in his first major league at bat. Not only that, but it was the first pitch he ever saw in the majors. He never hit another homer in his career.

        Up 3-0 so might help my rhythm- I started the week in second but unfortunately owned Trout who went down ( with Pillar) both on a Monday so I am taking Zip from 2 OF spots for the week. Now I need a trading partner in the PONY league. Who do we know that their team is sucking in that league

            Sorry. I saw that live. It was one of the scariest things I have ever seen on a baseball field. So much blood.

              I wish I could say the same but I saw a kid get killed on a field when I was 14 which pretty much ended my baseball career.

                                I'm glad I didn't activate Sixto last year... can just stash him in my minors for another season.
