Ken Whodafuck now?
Uhh
How much wood would Waldichuk miss
Yeah, this joke fell flat fast
Sounds like a hockey enforcer
Was part of the Montas and Trevino trade with the Yanks in 2022.
Consider me whelmed.

Remember the phrases /u/TraderTed2 said we are not allowed to say anymore! If you say them, he will be very sad.
Reading he opted for rehabbing an elbow issue then months later having to go to TJ route in ‘24. This seems similar to Grant Holmes’ recent decision to let his elbow heal.
I am whelmed
Had a couple good seasons out of this guy on ootp. Let’s see how it pans out in real life
Braves were feeling left out of the Atlanta sports news cycle this week. Had to do to something to join in on the “fun”.
Coming off tommy john. Looks like he had some potential with the As. Will be nice to see what the new pitching coaches do with him.
What are the braves fans thoughts on the Trae young trade?
If I was a fringe player I wouldn’t even see what team I was on til Feb 1st haha
I like this guy based on name alone. Let’s go ken
But, but, he was Vidal.
I can’t believe it finally happened.
This guy was a meme in r/baseballcards. He was the no-name pitcher whose autograph seemingly everyone pulled from packs when they really wanted the hot rookies like Gunnar or Adley or really anyone else but him in ‘23.
