OFFICIAL STATEMENT FROM GERTIE, OWNER OF THE MADISON WOLVES
“The Wolves never rebuild. We reload. And today, we loaded up on a premium talent.”
With the second pick in the 2063 Draft, the Madison Wolves proudly select:
SS RAFAEL ADAMS
21 years old – Clearwater, MN – Righty bat, righty arm, absolute menace between the lines
The Résumé:
“When you draft a shortstop who hits like a cleanup hitter and defends like a Gold Glover, you don’t ask why—
you ask where to put the statue.”
“Rafael is going to look real good under the lights at Shotz Stadium. He’s the kind of player who makes pitchers nervous, fans loud, and opposing managers lose sleep. Welcome to the Wolfpack, kid.”
