One year ago, Paul Skenes was drafted with the 1-1 and signed for a record $9.2 Million.
He has dominated so far during his rookie campaign and will start as a rookie in this upcoming all-start game!
But some people in the baseball community, including myself, who were not sold on him a year ago.
So, let's take a look at how we got here and the lesson we can all learn.
Thread ⬇️
Ahhh yes the billion dollar organization that can’t pay their “grunts” a livable wage classic
Liam Coen says he made $16,000 with no benefits as an NFL assistant in 2010
"When I got into the profession, 2010, 16,000, no bennies you're the grunt. You're doing video. So you learn, do you love this or not"
"My dad left being a D3 college head coach. I mean, he was making like 15 grand doing it. He was it was a part-time gig, but he was the head coach of a division three college, and he left there to come coach me in high school"
"We took a team that was, I think, four and five the year before. We went 12-0, won the state championship, and never I mean, I'm talking about maybe once or twice like did we bring it really home"
"Demanding, not demeaning. And all my teammates, all my high school teammates were always at my house"
Blaming the substation > holding your systems/franchise accountable to what is almost certainly horrible workload management is getting almost half your team hurt
Idk which one to go with 🫠
The #49ers had at least 20 players sidelined with injuries at today's practice.
That's more than 20% of the roster. A staggering number at this stage of training camp.
Dumb on so many levels lol
"A professional shows up every day, stays on the job all day, does not take success or failure personally."
"An amateur worries about how they feel. A professional doesn't care how they feel. They do it."
"All you have to do is say to yourself, I'm going to attack this thing as if I were Kobe Bryant."
"Turning pro does have a cost. A lot of times you have to leave people behind."
"Groups of friends will have an unspoken compact among them that we're all going to stay mediocre. That's the deal."

Trump was credibly accused of assaulting a 13-15 year old girl in the files by an Epstein victim and the DOJ has been going around saying Trump did nothing wrong. The cover up is so brazen and so disgusting.
More evidence that @AGPamBondi lied under oath. She stated in Judiciary hearing: “There is no evidence that Donald Trump has committed a crime.”
Epstein documents in this article show the FBI interviewed a victim who credibly accused Trump of sexual assault.
Bondi must resign.
NEWS: The FBI *did* interview a victim who credibly accused Trump of sexual assault, according to Epstein file documents, undermining claims that Trump has not been accused of wrongdoing. It's unclear what became of the investigation. My report here: substack.com/home/post/p-188…
