Caleb Ferguson is trying to maneuver an October DFA.

Jacob Lombard is a polarizing experience Gulliver Prep shortstop Jacob Lombard has generational tools. But there's more than meets the eye.

2026 shortstop Jacob Lombard is one hell of a scouting experience.

I spent an inordinate amount of time scouting, studying and analyzing every granular detail of his profile this week.

Perhaps the most physically, athletically gifted player in the entire 2026 class, Jackson Prep SS/OF Kevin Roberts Jr. is a star.

But he’s always been told what he can, can’t, and should do. And he loves silencing the critics.

He’s carving his own path.

My god.

The entire division has hit an iceberg.

The Seattle Mariners and its fans are going through it right now. Yikes.

Plenty of wins in hot streaks are won by strokes of luck too.

Tomorrow.
