Daytona Beach, FL--
Your Mom
Talons 60 POT prospect Joseph Mother was dismayed recently to learn that he is once again relegated to Short Season A Daytona Beach, despite continued development that already sees him at 8 rated contact.
"I've been in the lowest level of the minors for three damn years now. All with rookie league. Won three 'Championships'. Big freaking deal. I literally have a career .350 batting average in rookie ball. And all I get is one little notch up to Short Season A? You gotta be shittin' me. What more do I have to do?" Mother said during a tense recent interview.
"It's all these old crusty Zoomers taking up slots in A and Double A," Mother continued. "I'm sure Chris Wright is a goddamn legend and blah blah blah. But just retire already you know? Let some of us younger players move up the ladder. You old MFs chasing after your faded glory aren't helping player development around here, that's for damn sure."
BBA age restrictions are coming to the minor leagues next season, but that won't be much help this year for guys like Mother and pitching prospect Nick Rivers, who barely made it to A ball and should be much farther along.
"In the meantime," Mother quipped, "You old farts might as well take your Metamucil and shit out one last season in the minors, because next year the party's over, Gramps!"
Go Talons!
