I did not realize the Twins originally drafted Grace. Some other notable guys the Twins drafted but didn't sign: Tim Belcher (1st...

So many amazing stats in this thread. My favorite crazy MLB stat: St. Paul natives, Gopher legends, Blue Jay world series champs and...

Tom Brady was the last active professional athlete drafted by the Expos. There are 2 different unrelated 6-foot-4 red-headed and...

Agreed. Yeah quite a career, generally anything he's been in is quality, no matter a large or small (ie HBOs Mare of Easttown) the role...

A mystery to me also-btw, I saw somewhere that Rich Hill joined Edwin Jackson this week, each having played for 14 teams; Jackson has...

My passion for college athletics was always very closely tied to the thrill (and disappointment) of the recruiting process and watching...
