The Padres signed OF Nick Schnell to a minor league contract.

A Rays first-round pick out of high school in 2018, Schnell played in the Nationals organization in 2025

He led all Washington minor leaguers with 23 HR, 84 RBIs and 242 TB

Especially for a life-long middle infielder who is accustomed to being engaged on every play.
There's some footwork stuff and some timing you have to get used to. It's the easiest position to play. Shut the hell up.

So, the Mets are in the news . . .

While I don't know what the Mets' major league roster will look like in 2026, I recently finished writing scouting reports for their top 30 prospects.

Some observations 🧵

Congratulations to the @milwaukeebrewers.bsky.social, our pick as the 2025 @baseballamerica.com Organization of the Year

They win

They develop

And they're going to do it again next year—a credit to years of good process
A combination of acquisitions panned out better than expected, and the development of some of their homegrown talent set the stage for the Brewers.

And the best is still yet to come 👀

Roberto Alomar, Carmelo Martínez, Edgar Martínez, Rey Sánchez, Rubén Sierra, Carlos Baerga, Bernie Williams, Juan González, and Carlos Delgado. All in the same 1995 winter ball lineup. Good lord.

The team hit .346/.426/.533 and dominated the 1995 Caribbean Series.

Just a thought: Rockies should claim Criswell. He figured out Coors in one flat ground session, then made a WILD, brilliant start there in ‘24.

they tried forcing this voter to reveal his name but he refused, emphasizing that he knows his Wrights
Ballot #5 is from a voter who wishes to remain anonymous. As a refresher, we are unable to report adds or drops, if any, on anonymous ballots.

This is the first ever known David Wright-only ballot. There will not be a unanimous inductee this year.

That should be Lithium CD single. Curmudgeon is the b-side!
I remember mailing a SASE to the Smashing Pumpkins' Chicago fanclub HQ to obtain a Siamese Dream lyric sheet

I still have it

Nirvana's Curmudgeon CD single release has revelatory. It had the complete lyrics to Nevermind

The hardest ones for me to hear were always the mumbled verses to In Bloom
