@ravioliet ITS YOUR GUYS IT'S YOUR GUYS

[billthedrake]

This one I started a few months ago but didn’t get too far yet. It started off as a spinoff of Dads I’d Like to Fuck and took on a life of its own.

THE SPORTS ILLUSTRATED JINX

Doing that cover was how I met my partner, my first one at least.

The Sports Illustrated issue had just dropped. A big cover photo of me, looking serious and posting with my bat, and the words "Miracle Worker" in big letters over my image. I was winding down my rookie season in the majors at the age of 21 and had exceeded high expectations. Life was good.

"Don't pay any attention to that jinx business," a man said as I was out a high-end steakhouse after a game, enjoying a drink in the bar area. "It's all bullshit."

The man was my type to a T. Late 40s, sturdy build, some gray in his medium-length hair, masculine dad-next-door looks. I am often guarded in public, but I gave him a big smile.

"Yeah?" I asked. "I sure hope so."

This man had an easy way about him. Confident, but not overly so. "It's definitely BS," he added. "Look at Trout. Didn't hurt his career one bit." His blue eyes seemed to sparkle as he talked, and I had to wonder if I was reading too much interest in them. Sexual interest. "But you don't need me to tell ya that, man."

I shrugged. "Well given how many people have brought up that fucking jinx," I said, "it's nice to hear a different point of view." I extended my hand. "Luke... nice to meet you." I mean, the guy clearly knew who I was, but I wanted to know who he was.

"Dan Ogle," he said, as he clasped my hand with an equally strong grip. In baseball you judge a man by his handshake. Dan was used to being judged. "It's an honor to meet you."

"You in the business?" I ventured.

"It shows?" he chuckled. "Yeah, I'm a scout. Was with the Orioles organization and now work independent."

"Smart move," I quipped. "The Orioles seem a mess lately."

"Ouch," he laughed harder. "That's tough, man." He gave my shoulder a friendly, gladhanding pat for a second. "Listen... I'm here to meet an agent buddy of mine..."

Something about his eye contact made me wonder if I could make a move. "Let me give you my number, Dan," I said.

The way his eyes lit up said I'd made the right call. Maybe he was just star struck. But I'd work that in my favor if it meant seeing more of that sun-weathered face and those sea-blue eyes. He pulled out his phone, and I told him my number.

****

The first drinks I grabbed with the guy was basically a date. We didn't call it that. But we made the usual small talk. Dan knew a lot more about me than I did about him. So I had him tell me his bio. He'd played in the majors a few years and got into the coaching side in some single-A team. Was frustrated by the lack of opportunities there so went into scouting. Was married once, no kids, divorced at 38.

I talked more about what it was like to be a star. Even if Dan Ogle was never a magazine-cover caliber player, he understood me. The benefits of being idolized and famous, and the drawbacks. I didn't talk about the latter with a lot of guys, but I felt I could with this pro-ball veteran.

Our eye contact got heavier as we talked. Like we knew what we were dancing around without coming out and saying it. Finally, I asked, "So, Dan... you able to be discreet?"

Without missing a beat he nodded. "Oh yeah. Absolutely." Those sea blue eyes staring back at me, with clear expectation.

"It's been a couple of months since I've gotten laid," I said, laying my cards on the table.

He let out a playful whistle. "Way too long, Luke."

"What about you?" I asked, finally nudging his knee under the bar. This was gonna happen, and I knew, and I was throwing hard in anticipation.

"About the same," he smirked.

"We should go fix that," I hissed.

"Now?" It wasn't a question of surprise. More, Dan was trying to read what was on my mind.

"If you're up for it... yeah, now." I knew my voice was getting that horny edge to it.

We settled up our check and I went over to Dan's hotel room. I wondered if we were going to have more conversation, maybe figure out what each other was into sexually. I was strictly top or into getting serviced. I normally got my way, but sometimes older guys think it should be the other way around.

But we didn't talk. Instead we met for a kiss as we rapidly stripped off our clothes. I'd barely unbuttoned my jeans when Dan crouched down in front of me, pawing my crotch and reaching in to pull out my cock.

"Damn, that's a big dick," he gasped. And then revealing he did not find that a problem in the least, the middle-aged ex-jock leaned forward and started sucking me.

"Holy shit!" I laughed. I wasn't 100% surprised Dan Ogle sucked cock. After all, I'd met up with older guys who liked to fool around. But I was surprised he was so into it, so good at it. He sucked me fast and hard, like it was his last cock ever. I didn't think that the almost rough sucking would feel good, but it was incredible. Those long fast mouth strokes and that heavy suction were gonna get me to nut, too soon.

"Ease up, man!" I gasped. "I'm almost cumming."

The veteran ex-jock spit out my prick and sucked in some air, as he swallowed that excess spit. "Yeah?" he teased, now hand stroking my bat. "What would be wrong with that?" The man was horny, and I loved how thrilled he seemed to be about sex. No hang ups whatsoever. That was a first for me, actually.

"Come on, man," I almost complained. "Let me at least feel up your body for a bit, you know... enjoy this some."

That took Ogle by surprise. I think he thought I'd just want to shut my eyes and use his mouth or something. Maybe that's what dudes like me had done before with him. Leaning back, he showed off his bare chest. "Didn't think you'd be into all this, man," he smiled.

"You have no fucking idea," I growled. I could unload my daddy issues on Dan later and tell him how I was wired for men over 40, but for now, I just wanted that physical contact with that more mature muscle. "Let's get on the bed," I urged.

I stripped off the rest of the way and ate up the way Dan's eyes feasted on my nakedness and my erect state. Maybe it was the ego boost he needed to strip down all the way and almost pose for me as he got on the bed. His body wasn't perfect but it was pretty damn nice. Strong muscle, just the right amount of hair, amazing legs. Dan had been a catcher back when he played.

His body felt hot to the touch when we embraced. He was a good kisser and seemed to get into the sensual, slow approach. I matched his speed, even as I was horny as fuck and leaking against his furry belly. We made out and rolled around some, and I ended up on top of him. Heart pounding against his chest and his strong grip feeling up my lat muscle.

When I pulled back from our lip lock the 40-something scout had need in his eye. "You wanna be in me, Luke?" he asked softly.

"Hell yes," I growled.

He smiled. "I got some lube in my bag in the bathroom, if you wanna get it. Rubbers if you want, too."

I hoisted my athletic body out of bed and went to get the stuff, my dick sticking straight out like a divining rod. The stuff was easy to find. Indeed next to the small lube bottle there were two foil packets. I loved that a man like Dan came prepared.

I didn't take a condom, though, and I could read Ogle's silent excitement as he saw me empty handed other than the lube. I flipped the cap and squirted the slickness onto my fingers as I got up on the bed. Any other time, I'd enjoy more foreplay and rim him out some. I loved eating ass, and an ex-catcher daddy would be one hell of a feast. But I needed to fuck.

He hissed at the first finger but the second went in like butter. Dan Ogle wasn't a slut bottom, but this wasn't his first rodeo. As I lined up my cock, I was excited to be topping such a hot guy. It was still sinking in that I was a lucky bastard.

"That's good," Dan said softly as I pushed in. His sea blues were looking up, and he was nodding slightly as I pushed on. I knew why. He was tight as fuck and he knew I wouldn't be able to read if he was good to go. Thankfully, he was.

"You have an amazing ass," I grunted as I bottomed out. He was hot and snug and his insides felt alive around my cock.

Dan was horned up, and his dick twitched on his furry belly. He had some love handles but otherwise was total DILF. "I can't believe you're here fucking me," he almost laughed.

I held my body steady for him, his legs on my shoulders. "You ever fantasize about me?"

"Didn't dream to," he admitted.

"But a player like me, right?" I nudged him mentally. "You always wanted to get nailed by a guy like me." That second part was now statement, not a question.

"Jesus," Dan growled, a deep belly growl. "Fuck yes."

"You got it, man," I said and just started fucking. Not hard, but it was a deep steady fuck and I was hung enough for him to feel it.

He stroked as I railed him then let go when he was getting too close.

"Go ahead," I urged. "I'm pretty close, too."

I watched him stroke and I watched his hand work up his pleasure in tandem with the internal stimulation I was giving him. Then I watched the 40-something ex-catcher spew his pearly white seed all over that gorgeous daddy fur.

"FUCK!" I grunted and felt my own cum rising up, all of a sudden. Two months was a long time between lays. I held his legs tightly and humped his ass with a couple of final fast strokes.

I was flush red and breathing fast as I came down. Dan laughed at me some, and I laughed with him. "I needed that, buddy," I said, giving his meaty chest a playful dual fist bump before I leaned back and slowly pulled out.

I had to watch the slight creampie in his hole before it shut back up. A conquest trophy.

"I could tell," Dan grinned as he lowered his legs and shook out the stiffness. "I don't normally like it missionary, but that was hot as fuck."

I grinned, plopping down on the bed. "It was."

Dan gave me one last look, like he still couldn't believe his luck and still couldn't believe this happened. I got that look a lot, and I always ate it up. "Gonna shower off," he announced.

He was back to normal when he got back. A little quiet, maybe moody. I didn't know his deal, but I wasn't gonna find out. I took a piss and got dressed.

"Take care, man," I said as I got ready to leave. He was on his phone, checking on texts or something.

He looked up. "Yeah. Have a good one."

I got the message. One time thing. OK by me. I was a player, a hunter, always onto the next lay. One time things were my MO.

Only the next morning I awoke to a text. Dan Ogle's text, sent fifteen minutes earlier. "I got an 11AM plane to catch. But maybe I can interest you in a morning BJ before I go?"

I texted him a thumbs up and my hotel and room number.

****

It's not as easy having groupie sex when you're into guys as when you're straight. But it happens for me far more than you'd imagine. I just have to be cautious with my approach, feel a guy out. The thing is, if a guy has a remote bi-curious streak, it's almost a sure thing that a star athlete will be able to exploit it. The star struck thing goes a long fucking way, and guys felt excited to be close to me. Even if only for an hour or a night, they were getting one-on-one Luke Fulton time.

My first groupie was when I was still in the minors. But I was clearly a top prospect in the farm system and come Spring Training I had a chance to practice and play with the big league guys.

I was gathering up my stuff after an afternoon game versus the Tigers when I saw him. A few of the guys would meet with fans after, but this man seemed to be waiting for me. He was very much a typical corporate looking dude. Medium height, golf shirt, golf tan, khaki shorts, ball cap, expensive watch, dad sneakers. Meaty dadbod build filling it all out and looking pretty good for a man in his 50s.

"Hi Luke," he said, polite but also forward. "Can I get your autograph?"

That was my first request for one, actually. I smiled. "Yeah?" I said, registering my surprise. "Um, sure."

I walked up and set down my bag. He handed me a pad and a pen. "You're gonna be the biggest star," he said, referencing the pro team name whose roster I was vying for. His gaze was on me, like he was trying to memorize the whole encounter for later. That was my first taste of groupies, the way they might not even be showing sexual interest but they clearly are into me and being around me.

"I'm not 21 yet," I reminded him.

"Well, I've been watching your progress. Ever since the draft." OK, Corporate Dude was one of THOSE fans.

"Who should I make this out to?" I asked, maintaining equally heavy eye contact. Corporate Daddy was good looking in a normal way, and that turned me on, too. He reminded me of the men in my hometown. I even flashed a wink, nothing too over the top, but doing as much flirting as I dared.

"Jim," he said. "God..." he continued as he watched me write my dedication and sign my name. "This is really cool."

I looked up and flashed my grin. "Isn't this what you come to Spring Training for?" I asked. "To meet the players?" Maybe I was starting to lay it on thick.

Jim was gung ho, though. "It's my second year here, but yeah... the chance to talk to you guys is incredible."

His eye contact was heavy and his wedding band made me think he wasn't the blabbing type. I still consider a band the best insurance when hitting on a guy. I took another paper out of that pad and wrote my number on it.

The man seemed embarrassed. "What's that for?" He asked.

Goddamnit. I guess I misjudged. "Never mind," I said, maybe a little curtly. After all, it wasn't any guy I gave my number. I started to grab the paper back.

He blushed, getting it, really getting. "Oh. That's cool, that's man. I'll keep it. If that's OK."

I nodded. "Just keep it private, OK?" I meant my number but also the fact that I'd given it to him.

"Oh yeah," he said.

I gave him one more wink and picked up my bag to walk back to the locker room.

It was an hour later when I got a text. "Hey. It's Jim. Thanks for giving me your number."

"Thanks for using it," I typed back. I was hanging out with some of the guys from the team, about to get some dinner.

I didn't hear back for a few minutes, then I got another text. "I don't normally do this kind of thing."

"It's cool man. I don't bite. No strings no expectations." I didn't have my mojo down, but I knew with a guy like this corporate dad you had to reassure him.

"What are you looking for?" I could almost sense his nervousness on his end.

"That's something better talked about in person," I wrote.

"Yeah," he acknowledged. Then "I'm around all week."

"Tonight?" I wrote. "9?"

"Yes."

He gave me his hotel info, which worked better. I was in a good mood when I showed up and gave a soft knock.

Jim had a nervous, naughty look as he ushered me in. "Hey..." he said as he shut the door behind me. "I shouldn't be doing this."

I got it. I'd met married men with misgivings before, but none as strong as this man's.

I paused and looked at him, giving him my best friendly expression. Giving him an out. "It's up to you, man. I'm not gonna pressure you."

He thought for a second. It was like I knew what he was thinking. Wondering if he'd ever get another chance at this. "I wanna," he replied.

"Cool," I said and stepped up to him. I'm used to seeing athletes and coaches all day, so sometimes a normal build like Jim's pales in comparison. But now that I was there, up close, he looked pretty damn fine. My hand touched his chest through his golf shirt and moved down to feel up his sides. I drew him closer to me, being forward now to claim a kiss off him.

He grunted as our lips met. I slipped my tongue forward and felt his excitement grow as his lips part and accepted it. We made out for a minute, which is the surest way to get my motor running. I was rock hard now, for sure.

I pulled back and examined his handsome face. "I guess I should have asked if you kissed," I said.

He exhaled a breath he'd been holding. "Yeah... that was my first kiss with a man, actually."

I cocked a grin. "Whaddya think?"

"'s pretty wild," he answered honestly. "But good."

My fingers now caressed his side, and I could sense he was getting majorly hard, too. "You done anything with a guy?" I needed to know where I stood.

He shook his head. "Back in college. You know some fooling around with fraternity brothers. A couple of blow jobs, that kind of thing."

I cocked my eyebrow. "You ever give one?"

Jim blushed some, making his reddish tan redder. "Yeah... it was years ago."

I pulled him closer to me, so he could feel my hardon against his own. "I'd very much enjoy getting one, man... if you're up for it." He was warming up to the idea, I could tell, but I wanted to head off any hesitation. "It's just us here. No one's gonna know."

"I don't know if I'm any good," he objected.

I moved my hand up and patted his shoulder. "Trust me, I'll love it." I didn't throw in a "pretty, please," but I was being as gradual and coaxing as I knew how to be. "Come on, why don't you sit on the bed?"

He nodded and stepped back from me. He was rock hard in his khaki shorts, which was a good sign. And as he settled on his hotel bed, his look was one of excitement more than nervousness.

I didn't want to spook him, but I was getting crazy horny. Jim was pushing my buttons big time. I stepped up till I stood about a foot in front of him. Then slowly, I undid my shorts and pulled out my boner.

Some guys comment on my size when they first see my endowment, but Jim just silently watched, eyes going wide.

"It's OK, bud," I assured him. "Just take what you feel comfortable with." I scooted closer so my hardon was an inch or so away from him. His licks were tentative, then less so. I could sense the novelty for him, and the thrill that came with that. I knew this was the last thing he expected to be doing on this trip.

"You've done this before, man," I urged. "You got this."

He nodded and then opened his lips to take me in. He bobbed up and down on a few inches. Jim wasn't lying. He wasn't any good at this. But I loved the feeling of his warm mouth and the wet tongue against my steel-hard dick. And I loved the rush of seeing this regular married daddy servicing me. I let him do his thing for a minute then spoke again.

"Feels nice," I encouraged him. Then, "Just suck me like you enjoy being sucked, man."

That seemed to make something click for him, and he adjusted his blowjob. Jim wasn't gonna be a pro cocksucker any time soon, but THIS was a lot better. He flenched when my hand touched his hair, but when he realized I was just gonna stroke his head in encouragement he relaxed back into it.

"Take your time, bud," I hissed, spreading my stance a little. "Takes me a good couple of minutes to work up a head of steam. But this feels awesome."

It did, and the physical sensations were starting to build up. But I also imagined this guy sucking dudes back home, showing off what he'd learned on me. That was the trigger that got me off.

"You better swallow, man," I growled. Mr. Easygoing was gone. I didn't want him pulling off. Maybe my fingers curled around the back of his head to keep him from retreating.

He grunted. Agreement, I guess. But he kept sucking as I spurted into his craw. I heard a choked sound, but it wasn't an actual choking. Mostly a grunt of excitement as he tasted, then swallowed, as fast I was pumping more sperm into his mouth and throat.

"Damn, that was nice," I hissed as I let go of his head and finally stepped back out of his sucking mouth.

"Did I do OK?" he asked, voice thick with my cum still. Something about that question was adorable and exciting both.

I smiled. "Fuck yea you did." I nodded down to his hard crotch. "You need to get off?"

He unzipped. Clearly, sucking me had worked him up. He spit into his palm and I watched him start pulling his pud. It wasn't gonna take him long, not from the excited look in his eyes and the fast fist motion. I stepped closer and let my dong sway in front of his face.

That got him going. "You got a great cock," he admitted.

"And you sucked it," I reminded him.

"Yes," he grunted, and like that he was cumming.

"That's it, man," I urged.

Our release complete, I stepped back and tucked back in as he wiped himself with a Kleenex. His mood shifted some.

"We good man?" I asked. He could have all the guilt pangs he wanted, but I didn't want a full-on freak out.

"Yeah," he said quietly. "Thanks for that.... I'm gonna remember that for a long while."

"If you wanna make some more memories this week, you know where to reach me."

more Odd Squad oc posting! here are my main silly guys :D

character lore under the read more because i just know i'm gonna go on a whole ramble and don't want to make the post super long

so both of these guys are from precinct 73559 (which is the precinct we made for our ocs), Oriole is the creature room director and Orion is of course the branch manager. both of them are relatively new to the precinct, having been transferred there together just before Okiku stated working there (Okiku is @/dragonroar87's agent character btw! i consider her a main character which is why i'm using her as a reference for the timeline lol), and they are also quite close and consider each other as best friends (hence the bracelets) because before Orion was promoted and they were transferred the two of them were actually partners in the investigation department! although most agents in 73559 don't know this so they're just left to wonder why Oriole is always hanging around their manager's office and why she calls him Orion instead of Mr. O

personality-wise the two of them are pretty much opposites of each other and they definitely fit the whole 'silly partner and serious partner' pattern that canon kinda has, with Oriole being the more energetic and silly one and Orion being the more quiet and serious one, although their personalities and energy kinda rub off on each other when they're together.

Orion himself is like that introverted person who keeps taking leadership positions for some reason even though he doesn't particularly like public speaking or anything like that, because someone has to do it. he is actually a good leader though even though he doesn't realize it a lot of the time (he has a pretty bad case of imposter syndrome), and he cares about his agents a lot. he also happens to be a pretty big nerd which Oriole teases him about. he's also been through some pretty traumatic stuff and is a pretty anxious person as well, but he doesn't talk about any of that usually (i'll go into detail about it later but for now i'll just say that Oriole was not his first partner. do with that information what you will)

Oriole on the other hand is just a silly little guy full of joyous whimsy. she is very eager to learn things and to solve problems, but she has some chaotic tendencies and when she isn't causing problems on purpose she tends to cause them on accident instead, and she always manages to fix them in the end but that doesn't stop her from getting into trouble. she ended up transferring to the creature department after Orion was promoted because during the series of events leading up to that she was noticed for her talent in dealing with creatures, so in a way she and Orion were kinda promoted at the same time and i love that for them tbh. she enjoys her job very much, but she also still kinda multiclasses in investigation sometimes to help with cases and basically serves as an unofficial third partner to Okiku and Oceane a lot of the time. she has a few creatures that she calls her companion creatures that she's trained and she likes to bring them with her on cases and send out at villains like they're pokemon, the main one being a size-changing feathered snake/serpent dragon creature that she named Updog (she LOVES using the updog joke on people btw) and due to their shrinking ability Updog hangs out in one of her pockets usually. a few of her other creature names include names such as Mister President (so she can say things like "Mister President get off of the table!" or "the President ate my paperwork sorry"), Gazebo, and Periscope

A Star Fallen From Heaven

“Man originates from far away; so far indeed that in speaking of his origin such phrases as ‘beyond the stars’ are frequently employed. Man is estranged from his origins. Some of his feelings are indicators of this. Dimly he senses this separation, this exile.

Man, in fact, has the opportunity of returning to his origin. He has forgotten this. He is thus ‘asleep’ to the reality.

Sufism is designed as the means to help awaken man to the realisation, not just the opinion, of the above statements. Those who awaken are able to return, to start the journey, while also living this present life in all its fullness.

People have been sent, from time to time, to try to serve man and save him from his ‘blindness’ and ‘sleep’ (which today would be better described as ‘amnesia’). These people have always been in touch with the Origin, whose agents they are.

They have been of all races, and of all faiths. They have always had two main objectives: to show the man himself as he really is; and to help him develop his real, inner self, his permanent part.

Thus though man originates from far away, and is asleep, he can return if he attains the means to do so.”

Sell: Oriol Romeu, Sergi Roberto, Ter Stegen, Iñaki Peña, Lewandowski, Ferran Torres, Frenkie de Jong, and Marcos Alonso as free agent

Keep: Lamine, Cubarsí, Gavi, Pedri, Fermín, Balde, Christensen, Raphinha, Gundogan, Araujo, Kounde, Iñigo, Vitor Roque

Don't buy neither of the Joaos, buy a DM, a fullback, a goalkeeper and a LW and go for free agents, trust la Masía and get experienced assistants

This would be my perfect transfer window but we know nothing of this is happening🤣🤣

Can you take Deco's job please 😭

Morosi mentions that the Braves are among the finalists to land Cease, who was born and raised in Georgia. USA Today's Bob Nightengale previously reported Atlanta's interest in the ace.

The Braves are on a long list of teams showing interest in Cease -- The Athletic's Ken Rosenthal reported Tuesday that more than a dozen clubs have inquired about the 28-year-old. However, perhaps none is better positioned to acquire him than the Orioles.

Morosi made the case for the O’s as a possible contender for Cease on Wednesday, pointing to Baltimore’s need for a frontline starter and its elite farm system as reasons why we could see the club trade for Cease, who is under team control through 2025.

Blake Snell Joins Dodgers: Key Impacts on MLB and Free Agency

The Los Angeles Dodgers have made a significant offseason move by signing Blake Snell to a five-year, $182 million deal. The two-time Cy Young Award winner is set to bolster an already championship-caliber rotation, creating ripples across Major League Baseball and reshaping the free-agent pitching market.

Snell's Impact on the Dodgers

Adding Snell strengthens the Dodgers' rotation after their 2024 World Series triumph. Known for his elite strikeout ability and consistency on the mound, Snell complements the team's depth, which already includes rising stars and experienced arms. This move signals that Los Angeles remains committed to sustaining its winning culture while addressing postseason pitching vulnerabilities that surfaced in recent years【8】【9】.

Market Shake-Up

Snell's signing takes one of the most coveted arms off the free-agent market, leaving contenders like the Yankees, Red Sox, and Orioles to explore alternative options. The deal could set a new benchmark for other elite pitchers like Corbin Burnes and Max Fried, who are expected to command lucrative contracts. Teams now face intensified competition to secure top talent, potentially driving up prices across the board【9】【10】.

Strategic Implications

For the Dodgers, this move likely means reallocating resources, possibly foregoing the re-signing of Jack Flaherty or pursuing additional offensive upgrades. Meanwhile, rival teams that missed out on Snell may pivot to other targets in a tightening market. The deal underscores the Dodgers' financial might and their willingness to invest heavily in pitching excellence【8】【10】.

ESPN "Similar to Adames… will receive more than $100 million in FA."

"Kim Ha-sung (29, San Diego Padres) is one month younger than Willy Adames (29, Milwaukee Brewers), who is similar in attack and defense."

Neither injury, lackluster performance, nor bad luck lowered Kim Ha-sung's value.

ESPN, a U.S. sports media outlet, classified Kim Ha-sung as "a Tier 3 total of between $100 million and $200 million" while dividing the grades of players who will become free agents after this season on the 21st (Korea Standard Time).

There were not many descriptions of Kim Ha-sung. Instead, he chose Adames as a comparison target. Adames, the Milwaukee Brewers' main shortstop, is considered the biggest fish among shortstops after this season. With a batting average of 0.253, 22 homers, 85 RBIs, 68 runs and 13 steals this season, he is an air defense captain with both long hit power and outstanding defense.

"Adames has consistently played as a good shortstop and has consistently recorded five phases in WAR (contributing to victory over replacements) for four consecutive seasons with above-average offense," ESPN said. "He is entering the 29-year-old season, and he is expected to sign a total of nine digits (more than $100 million) for at least five years."

Compared to Adames, the description of Kim Ha-sung was shorter, but it was enough. As for Kim Ha-sung, the media introduced, "He is similar to Adames in attack and defense, and he is a month younger." It means that the two are virtually the same level.

He has a batting average of 0.233, 11 homers, 47 RBIs, 60 runs and 22 steals this season. His pace has significantly declined compared to last year's batting average of 0.260 with 17 homers, 60 RBIs, 84 runs and 38 steals. Notably, his batting average was significantly lower than that of last year's 0.306. The OPS (on-base plus slugging percentage) was 107 last year, which was calculated based on the average of the league, but it is still 99 this year. The batting average (BABIP) of in-play was 0.261, which is significantly lower than that of last year's 0.306.토토사이트 추천

In addition, it has recently hit the injury issue. Kim Ha-sung threw himself to the first base check ball after getting on base with a hit in the top of the third inning against the Colorado Rockies on the 19th, and returned to the dugout after complaining of right shoulder pain. He then took a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and San Diego coach Mike Shildt said, "We are still analyzing the test results," and added, "The results of the first checkup are quite satisfactory, but we are still gathering information and things can always get worse."

Although the ransom could fall, the local view is still expected to be optimistic considering ESPN articles. Initially, the total amount of contracts was expected to be one step lower than Adames due to sluggish performance this season, but this was also tied to the same level.

Meanwhile, along with Adames and Kim Ha-sung, third baseman Alex Bregman (Houston Astros), first baseman Pete Alonso (New York Mets), third baseman Matt Chapman and starting pitcher Blake Snell (San Francisco Giants), Max Fried (Atlanta Braves) and Jack Flaherty (LA Dodgers) were selected as third-grade FA.

Among them, the Baltimore Orioles ace and former Cy Young Award winner Corbin Burns was selected as a confirmed player with $200 million, while New York Yankees' Juan Soto was selected as a first-class player. The media predicted that Soto could sign an all-time contract, calling it "the level of GDP (gross domestic product) of a small country."

Abril - Pràctiques

Oriol Vilar Grau - Barcelona Health Hub

El passat mes d'abril va fer un mes que vaig començar les pràctiques. Així doncs, es va tractar d'un mes on vaig participar en vàris esdeveniments.

En primer lloc, Barcelona Health Hub, té un conveni amb CatRàdio, així doncs, un cop cada mes (aquest era el darrer mes) participàvem en el programa Revolució 4.0 de la mà de Xantal Llavinia. En aquest programa es parla sobre totes les vessants de la innovació, la creativitat i la competitivitat del mercat tecnològic a Catalunya. Així doncs, a principis de mes, vàrem fer la grabació d'un dels capítuls al nostre Hub, ja que el programa que s'anava a grabar hi participaven 6 representants del nostre Hub, desde startups fins a universitats. El programa es titula: La propera gran revolució és la de la salut digital, el pots escoltar aquí: https://www.ccma.cat/3cat/la-propera-gran-revolucio-es-la-de-la-salut-digital/audio/1203545/

Així doncs, em vaig encarregar junt amb la meva mentora de pràctiques de contactar amb les 6 empreses perquè enviessin un representant per parlar de com la salut digital revolucionarà els serveis sanitaris del futur. A més, vaig ajudar amb totes aquelles necessitats que va tenir CatRàdio per grabar al nostre Hub, des de la reserva de la sala fins a la contractació d'un fotògraf. A continuació una foto durant la grabació.

A mesura de que va anar avançant el més també vaig participar en la primera visita que he fet mai a un client, en aquest cas, a un membre del nostre Hub. La visita en questió era a AdSalutem que és un Institut Universitari del Son format per un equip multidisciplinari de professionals especialitzats en medicina del son. Vaig visitar a Antoni Esteve junt amb dos companys, jo vaig anar com a representant d'esdeveniments i li vaig explicar sobre el Health Revolution Congress (Congrés del que ja et vaig parlar al anterior post). Així doncs, li vaig explicar de què anava al congrés i el vaig invitar a participar-hi de forma activa mitjançant una ponència de la importància del son en la salut. Adjunto fotografia de la visita:

Un altre esdeveniment en el que vaig participar durant el mes d'abril va ser la firma del conveni amb la universitat EAE, ja que va esdevenir membre del nostre Hub i es va venir el seu degà per fer la firma simbòlica del conveni on nostrales com a Hub firmavem un acord de col·laboració amb la universitat per establir sinèrgies en un futur, com pot ser la implementació de becaris de la universitat en les startups que formen part del nostre Hub. Així doncs, també vaig presentar a EAE el Health Revolution Congress i els beneficis que tindrien si participen en el congrés, com per exemple, vendre el proper master en salud digital davant tots els possibles agents que es trobessin al congrés. Adjunto imatge de la firma:

Un altre fet a destacar esque Barcelona Health Hub va participar en l'entrega de premis "Premio Joven Relevante" del Círculo Ecuestre de Barcelona. El Círculo Ecuestre presenta cada any uns premis a joves emprendedors, així doncs, hi particia un jurat especialitzat en startups que entengui de què va l'empresa i la puntiï en funció de la seu impacte a la societat. Així doncs, Barcelona Health Hub hi participa cada any com a jurat, ja que la majoria de startups que si presenten tenen a veure amb salut digital i a més de poder aportar coneixement també aprofitem per anar-hi per captar clients, així doncs, es tracta d'una entrega de premis que es fa durant un dinar (fora del horari laboral), però jo m'hi vaig oferir per participar com a jurat junt amb una companya meva de la feina per acompanyar-la a captar clients i representar a Barcelona Health Hub. Així doncs, vaig anar-hi i vaig dinar mentre les startups ens presentaven els seus projectes, així doncs, tant jo com la meva companya vàrem votar per una startup que no m'enrrecordo del seu nom, però que oferia una placenta artifical que en un futur podria ajudar als nados premators. Un cop cada membre del jurat vota quina starup li ha agradat més es fa una votació final, va acabar guanyant aquesta startup de la placenta artifical i li vàrem demanar la seva trageta perquè es fes membre del nostre Hub, finalment s'hi va unir. Adjunto fotografia:

A finals de abril vaig ajudar en l'organització per el Health Revolution Congress, bàsicament vaig gestionar les entrades de l'esdeveniment i que tots els registres estiguessin correctes. També que les ponències de tots aquells "speakers" que participaven en panels fossin correctes, és a dir, hi havia molts speakers que venien al congrés a parlar sobre algun tema de salut digital per debatre o bé presentaven la seva empresa i quina solució ofereix. Així doncs, ens hem d'encarregar un mes abans de l'esdeveniment de que la presnetació sigui correcte i de tenir tota la informació necessària de cada speaker per després poder-ho comunicar a les nostres xarxes, tenir una foto seva, el seu càrrec, bio, on treballa, logo...

https://www.tumblr.com/ikram1909/740970781212868609/unless-we-sell-some-big-players-we-wont-have-any?source=share easy 👍 fdj is the one who can actually bring us lots of money (he is good + prime age) i really like him and wanted him to success here but man his salary is killing us badly and now we got his newborn (lucas) to replace him so lol, lewandowski can generate big money in Arabia, Raphinha can go to Arabia too or the PL (i think there were reports sayin tottenham was interested in him), Sergi Roberto can go to Arabia or Serie A (wasnt juventus or milan interested in him?), Oriol Romeu (same as sergi roberto), Marcos Alonso (this will be 100% profitable since he came as free agent), Koundé to Arabia or any french team, Ferran back to PL, this hurts but Chirstensen can be an option, Peña, and for the love of god dont buy Félix. All our loanees seem that theyre doing great in their teams (except torre ig) so sell all of them except Julián and Fati.

Yeah, basically we are selling the 90% of our starting XI except for Gavi, Pedri, Gundogan (i think he is doing good and we need at least one old man because we have too many kids on there), Araujo (ik the last 2 months he has been shit but i want to give him one more chance next season) and keep la masia kids. I think if we sell all the mentioned we can actually achieve 200M or more since the reports say that thats Deco's goal for this summer.

Yep, i totally agree with you. We are in desperate need of an overhaul of the squad and start over. I just hope they don't waste that money buying the wrong players again 😒
