Notes From MLB.com:

 

• Of the 23 Futures Gamers outside the Top 100, all but three are on their team's Top 20 Prospects lists. Sixteen organizations will be represented by a prospect ranked in its top three. There are 19 former first-rounders, including six from the supplemental first round. Among the 13 first-round picks, six were selected in the 2013 Draft, three in the '12 Draft, three in the '11 Draft and one in the '10 Draft.
   
  
• The World Team features players from seven countries and territories outside the United States. The Dominican Republic is represented by nine players, followed by Puerto Rico with six representatives, Venezuela has three representatives and Colombia has two. There are also players representing Canada, Mexico and Cuba.
   
  
• Prior to this year's All-Star festivities, 115 players have competed in both the Futures Game and the Major League Baseball All-Star Game. Twelve players -- Jose Altuve, Adam Dunn, Neftali Feliz, Jose Fernandez, Jason Heyward, Bryce Harper, Francisco Liriano, Evan Longoria, Manny Machado, Jean Segura, Ben Sheets and Geovany Soto -- appeared in the Futures Game and were named to the All-Star Game in the following season.

Who cares about the prospects, what are the rosters for the celebrity softball game?

[jays4life19]

Niice. Should start just about when the Jays game ends.

[BigBounceyBlueBalls]

It might be on MLB network. It will be on MLB.com though.

 

Oh! Hope Pompey does well! Hope Norris sees some work as well!

 

Question! Is your boy kal ok? Is lack of playing time as got to be frustrating to him!

 

Not sure what the Jays are thinking he seems to have fallen out of favour with them and their plans!

 

Know why?

[HERPDERP]

I didn't know Pompey was that small

[HERPDERP]

Pompey fly out to LF

[HERPDERP]

Sanchez will be in the 2nd inning right?

[jays4life19]

Nice AB by Pompey

[jays4life19]

No one else watching this?

 

I'm watching. So far so good for Norris

[jays4life19]

Nice inning. 2 ground outs and 1 K

[BigBounceyBlueBalls]

Norris that was easy!

[Atothe]

Norris looks very good, DAT CURVE

[jays4life19]

Sucks that Norris will only pitch the 1 inning

[Atothe]

Dat slugging percentage by Gallo

[jays4life19]

German strikes out Gallo and Bryant. They didn't stand a chance.

 

Do you know how many AB's Pompey should get? 2?

[jays4life19]

Also....thumbs up to everyone watching this and not the f***ing boring soccer game that has nothing to do with Canada.

[Frenchsoup]

Pompey has a nice approach

[burlingtonbandit]

Also....thumbs up to everyone watching this and not the f***ing boring soccer game that has nothing to do with Canada.

 

Lol the world cup comes every 4 years. Just because it is not Canadian doesn't mean we shouldn't watch it.

[jays4life19]

Lol the world cup comes every 4 years. Just because it is not Canadian doesn't mean we shouldn't watch it.

 

You're right. You shouldn't watch it because its soccer.

 

For example. I may watch a Canada vs Sweden gold medal curling match in the Olympics. I will not watch a China vs Sweden gold medal curling match because it's boring and i don't care who wins.
