That's an awesome story! Welcome !!! I grew up a military brat, so i spent some time in Germany (Ramstein AFB). It's a lovely place and have very fond memories of the area. Again welcome and have fun, hope the Hawks can pull it off !!!
I know very little about the modern landscape of baseball, I'm just a casual fan nowadays (helps the stress levels). How much would Realmuto command as a DH in today's market with his age ? Is that even something in the realm of reality?
With Willie Lampkin going undrafted, I'd definitely kick the tires on this guy as a potential FB. He was OL but is severely undersized at 5'10" 280lbs. Just like that TE we drafted we can try him out at FB ... Food for thought.
I know I might get some heat, but I would not get mad if they took Deone Walker at 18. Who are you gonna double team on dline with Murphy, Williams and Walker? A pipe dream, sue me
If you look at his stat line for last nights game it's like he was never there. He didn't show up to the game, missed the flight. We basically played with 10 men on defense
