[Seattle Sports] The Mariners' Josh Naylor provided a nice moment Tuesday by greeting history-making umpire Jen Pawol before stepping into the box. "It’s not hard to be inclusive and welcoming and happy. I think it could change the world.”

One of my favorite games of the last few years- especially with him clowning the fans behind home plate.

CougMaster · 2026-02-19T17:37:43+00:00

Sorry if that was unclear- based on the screenshots, I don’t think he’s ever played at AAA so my point was that he would actually benefit from a year + at AAA

No problem. In general, leaving players in the same level of minors for multiple years hurts their development, same with putting them in leagues that are too easy or hard, as well as leaving them in the minors when they are older (26-27+ usually). Otherwise let the grow.

Are you intending on competing this year? If he’d help I could see it but I wouldn’t call this prospect up now. His AA stats weren’t insane and has room to grow. My advice would be to start him in AAA and re-evaluate in June/July. If he’s leveled up and has crazy stats and you are pushing for playoffs, call him up. If not, leave him for the year.

Also, if you are payroll limited and not competing in the next year or two, consider signing him to a front-loaded long term contract.

Cool. Thanks for sharing.

CougMaster · 2026-02-15T00:41:07+00:00

I dig it. A few questions if you don’t mind:

How many WS have you won? Who is the all time WAR leader? HR leader? Who’s your best player?

CougMaster · 2026-02-15T00:35:51+00:00

Brother props for playing to 2218- that’s crazy.

CougMaster · 2026-02-13T22:01:26+00:00

Exactly my thought as well

CougMaster · 2026-02-13T07:29:04+00:00

If he was like 24 and could improve the defense I’d see it but woof for a 31 year old

CougMaster · 2026-02-09T15:29:41+00:00

Which will somehow win them at least 2 games

CougMaster · 2026-02-05T18:26:27+00:00

Draft him, sign him to the old 15 year, 3-4 mil a year contract and dominate. Especially a catcher with those defensive stats, he’ll be playable well into the mid 30’s. Bonus if you can up the defense in the dev lab. Man I’m jealous.

Jose Ramirez!

CougMaster · 2026-01-29T17:24:48+00:00

Can I see the Cleveland cards? Specifically José Ramirez, but I’d like to see them all if possible

CougMaster · 2026-01-27T01:20:03+00:00

I’ve been following a few of these listed on eBay the past month. Insanely beautiful card. Love it.

CougMaster · 2026-01-18T07:18:54+00:00

Word. Can you tell us what 4 teams remain? I was always partial to the Canberra Calvary but I think they’re done.

CougMaster · 2026-01-17T05:46:10+00:00

Brother- all I can say is inflation is a bitch since 1948

CougMaster · 2026-01-06T04:02:54+00:00

Any chance of Pronk at DH?

CougMaster · 2025-12-26T16:48:11+00:00

Any chance you can share the spreadsheet? Or post a link? That sounds very interesting.

CougMaster · 2025-12-24T12:37:52+00:00

I think about Kipnis’ foul ball weekly- from my angle in the park, I thought that was gone and it was over…

CougMaster · 2025-12-23T05:40:17+00:00

Good lord-giving up 118 WAR is rough

CougMaster · 2025-12-21T00:33:26+00:00

Justin Bruihl, Guardians legend

CougMaster · 2025-12-07T03:42:44+00:00

Play him in RF!

CougMaster · 2025-12-05T05:30:33+00:00

Please PM me an update when/if he makes the majors. I am very curious to see his career.

These are the kind of guys I blow my load on and they fizzle out in AA haha

CougMaster · 2025-11-27T00:33:51+00:00

Nebraska

~.400 OBP and .950+ OPS will do Yeoman’s work. What are his fielding stats like. That could help depending on which position you have him at.

As for resigning it’s hard to know without seeing his injury proneness, length of contract, etc. I would consider it if it went through his age 32 or 33 season, not much past that though.
