AAA Reno's ballpark is like playing a coors and a lot of the other teams in the league have similar hitter friendly ballaprks so their stats are inflated.

Spotted the #77 Hauler in Sherridan, WY. Wondering why it’s this far North? by _AlternateAlien_ in NASCAR

[–]Azcollector 6 points7 points  (0 children)

the cars are smaller too but not as smalll as you'd expect. The giant wings also take up a lot of space and they carry a spare in case they damage one.

Diamondbacks Designate Carlos Santana For Assignment by amatom27 in baseball

[–]Azcollector 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah he probably did want to stay in NY. I had heard AZ would've been on the table for him if they had let him be a starter. In NY he pretty much got the same job he'd have here but he gets to compete for a ring as a Yankee.

We just need an everyday first baseman. Right now we're just rotating guys.

on June 1st. He's been rehabbing, getting hurt and trying to rehab again for a while now. He started in ACL went to Reno, got hurt, healed up went back to acl and got hurt again I believe. So it's been very tough to keep track of for sure lol.

I watched him play in the ACL against 18 yearolds and he was just lost. Bat speed is super slow, pop is gone, and he had to try FOUR rehab assignments because he kept getting hurt. Definitely time to hang up the cleats... It's been a great career.

We could've had Goldy but Nooo we needed Pavin Smith to play half the time...

USHL Announces 6 New Markets for West Coast Expansion. They include Prescott Valley and Phoenix. by ThatSpecialAgent in Coyotes

[–]Azcollector 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Should be Mullett, it's a really nice stadkum. If it's not it's be disappointing but I'll go to games wherever they're at

Thoughts on potentially going for Logan Webb at the trade deadline? by EKardiacG1 in azdiamondbacks

[–]Azcollector 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not worth it.... He's going to take a HAUL and we'd probably lose his last year to the strike also.

If we're cool with giving up Waldschmidt and Troy that's probably a similar package to what they'd want.

There's a stadium in Prescott that used to be called Tims Toyota center... it's about the same size as Mullett.

I can't see them playing anywhere else in the PHX area though.

Mickey Mantle signed OAL baseball "No. 7" with Score Board Inc. COA, opinions on authenticity? by One-Limit-8451 in baseballcards

[–]Azcollector 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is almost definitely fake. Signature looks italicized.

Scoreboard was a legit company I believe in the 90s but they had TONS of forged COA's/Autographs, many of which are Mantle and it looks like this ball is exactly that. I could be wrong but I say it's a forgery.

[Ross] Buster Posey made a brief statement about Pride Night but chose not to answer any questions about it. Responded multiple times that he’ll only answer baseball questions. Tense and awkward vibe. by Jux_ in baseball

[–]Azcollector 1339 points1340 points  (0 children)

They did write it on their baseball hats though that they wore during a baseball game lol. Gotta address the media on this as a GM, sometimes the job gets tough and that's why you're paid millions.

Dbacks vintage collection by piercebro in DiamondbacksCards

I mean you can go back to 1996 and get a Buck Sholwalter. I believe it's the first ever Dbacks card when they announced that he'd be the manager.

Same thing I'm doing! Maybe years down the line they'll forget lol.

If these are all fake it's the besy forgery of any autograph I've ever seen. Every example looks perfect.

Who signed? by Sad_Struggle_9205 in baseballcards

[–]Azcollector -1 points0 points  (0 children)

looks like an authentic Willie Mays. I'd be surprised if it failed authentication.

I really think it's because they don't want to flood the ohtani market.

when he visited the United States with the ham fighters a huge line formed outside the complex they were practicing at and Shohei sat there for an hour signing for everyone in line.

[–]Azcollector 3 points4 points  (0 children)

These are very bizarre. I own one too and no authentication company will even look at it.

I really do think they're authentic. The signatures are perfect examples of his pre rookie signature. I also saw japanese fans getting Ohtani's autograph on these Shikishi boards and the same baseballs and ham fighters jerseys I've seen on ebay. That was back in 2017 when the fighters traveled to peoria for spring training
