You'd think that there's no league, not even the great GBC, that can prepare you for the gauntlet that is major league pitching in the Brewster. But don't tell that to SP Ramon Prieto . An injury recently occurred to Thomas Turner , and Boise GM Mike Bauer sought a starter to fill in for the veteran...

Wishing better luck for Santos ... tough year so far.

With the 2065 BBA Amateur Draft complete and almost all draft picks signed by Boise , let’s take a look at each of the Spuds’ selections, along with the expected role and level each player will likely fulfill. Some will contribute to the Short A/Drake League Hot Springs Gators , while other rookies ...

I put a claim in on him as well. I never realized this until now, but apparently he won the ERA title last season!

Yeah when I saw that, it influenced me to roll the dice on Takehide.

by Lem Piker, Sr. As a writer for the BBA for multiple decades, I’ve seen teams get off to bad starts where tempers really start to flare. Clubhouses explode and the finger-pointing begins. The BBA is a unique league because its GM’s have protected status and cannot be fired. As a result, there is ...

With Boise continuing to scuffle to finish out April and sporting a -44 run differential that is second-worst in the BBA, GM Mike Bauer continues to pursue options to improve the team. Most notable in the struggle is the starting rotation, who outside of veteran Thomas Turner (4.70 ERA, 1.40 WHIP) h...

by Lem Piker Sr In a cost-saving move in January, Boise GM Mike Bauer decided to trade incumbent CL Mario Santos to San Fernando for prospects. In moving Santos, the Spuds installed reliever Tim Stops as their new closer for 2065. The former 9th round pick (2058 draft) is off to a fantastic start, ...

This is indeed way too strange. Madison, Wisconsin needs to be placed on lockdown by an Army division.

The caption makes me wonder if the "BBA's 2nd sexist GM" is also the sexiest LOL

This is going Nowhere Man

I love our unintended collective emphasis on league history and past drafts!

Welcome back Ben! If you have any questions about the Moscow players or things please reach out!

In one of the strangest moves in recent memory, Boise GM officially filed paperwork to certify the new nickname “El Duque de Brewster” for A-level SP Orlando Hernandez . The origins of this nickname are bizarre to say the least. While being a full-time GM of both the Boise Spuds and GBC Moscow Thund...

Please give SP Orlando Hernandez the nickname "El Duque de Brewster"

Team News article coming in a minute. Thanks.

I'm so glad owner goals are disabled in the BBA. Imagine promoting a 12 stuff 1 control reliever just to appease him.

He's on the bubble for me, not sure yet if he makes it. But winning the Silk plus the longevity/3000 hits/Zimmers are tempting me.

Woohoo an extra draft pick!

I happened to click on the link here for Hector Cano and he's 70 years old. Wow!

Found the real Hector Cano Jr and this was actually a solid signing for the price, still has his glove.

Please add the nickname "MBM" to ML 1B/3B Malik bin Mazin.

Story

For years, Brewster fans and observers have referred to Malik bin Mazin using the moniker “MBM”. Today, bin Mazin and the Boise Spuds made it official and formally registered the MBM nickname with the league’s front office. “If Malik gets to Brewster Hall of Fame someday - and I think there’s a good...
