Martin works tirelessly and if you don’t know his work, you should change that today.
It’s been a busy week over on my SubStack. We have three parts of a Roster Analysis series where I broke down reader’s teams in

“You can have a long career ... by learning how to do that, mix speeds and pitch.”
⚾️ With the Brewers in the #WorldSeries spotlight, former player and current broadcaster @VinnyRottino has a message for young pitchers.
The #D3baseball alum believes velocity isn't everything:
A great area for beers! @bdentrek right on here

With the #WorldSeries on deck, here's a Division III nugget worth knowing.
The Brewers have MLB's only broadcast crew with two #d3baseball alumni.

This year's participants...
I get both emails daily. Game changer for me!!!
If you want to change someone's life, you don't have to move mountains.
You just have to show up.
I've been sending a daily email for years now. Every morning.
I've been divorced twice. Fired three times. There were days I didn't have much to offer anybody.
But God has a way of taking your mess and turning it into your message.
Sending daily emails wasn't some grand plan. It grew out of a mentoring group, a small circle of people trying to grow together. And when that was over, somebody called me and said, "We miss it. Don't stop."
So I didn't.
Now over 11,000 people open that email every morning.
And I don't send it because I have it all figured out. I send it because I was the guy who needed it once, and I know there are people out there who need it right now.
Being of service doesn't require a big platform. It just requires a willing heart and the courage to keep showing up.
Do you get my daily emails?
If not, just tap the link in my bio to sign up. They're free.
Make a difference today.
Love, Clint

I think this qualifies under the “even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while” statement. Ha! Either way we have our World Series participants set!
Going back in time, Mike's prediction here is proof that we should listen to @mdrc0508 more often. Start around the 47:30 mark.
And just ignore anything that I said here.

A must listen podcast every time!
If you're looking for some early offseason pods, @bdentrek and I have been running position recaps the last couple of weeks.

Third base, outfield coming this week.
Interesting question from Dave here. I’m likely to avoid and look elsewhere at this time.
Shohei Ohtani:
32 years old; extensive injury history; suffered through right bicep/left knee/neck discomfort throughout 2nd half and playoffs; could have offseason surgery for one or more of those ailments; plans to pitch in 2027.
Where do you feel comfortable drafting him?

“I truly don’t believe I would’ve made it to the major leagues if I hadn’t gone the Division III route.”
On and off the field for the Brewers, @VinnyRottino has embodied what D3 stands for.
Now, he’s developing future stars with @PrepBaseballWI: yd3.org/stories/vinny-rottin…

This is a tremendous piece. Thanks @enosarris. See you soon in Arizona!
Add “get short dudes” to the incomplete list of Moneyball type edges the Brewers & Rays (and Guardians really) have benefited from in the past decade-plus (free article) nytimes.com/athletic/7684373…
Thanks Eric!!!
Great stuff here from @mdrc0508 on @RotoBallerMLB on some of the biggest busts from this season!
Love this!
After months of building, @YD3_Sports is officially live.
Proud to help bring this vision to life and tell the stories of D3 student-athletes and alumni:
