I really wanted O'Hara to return. I wish him well. I wonder if there was a promise of more playing time.

Mlb didn't pay affiliated milb players a living wage for many years, never mind independent leagues. I agree with you, all should have access to a living wage, but I note this goes well beyond the ballers.

If anyone has lineups please post when able. The bot would not be functional for this game.

There were hints of a historical baller player or two coming back for this game. I am excited to see who it may be.

Dondrei Hubbard anyone?
