Speaking of the Negro Leagues....
-
....MLB website has some very nice feature articles as part of Black History Month. I encourage all to check it out. I can’t help but get the feeling they may have scooped SDS on a few of these. Just a feeling. I hope so because it means we will possibly be seeing at least Turkey Stearns Dobie Moore and Cool Papa Bell at least this season. Check out these articles for yourself and see if you don’t get the same vibe.
Here are a couple of them to whet your appetite....

There better be a Josh Gibson this year

@raesONE-_PSN Someone shared on here that Gibson’s family was having issues with MLB about his NIL fee. That probably eliminates him from this game if that wasn’t settled quick enough to include him.

Man that's sad. He's one of the first guys that comes to mind when talking about the Negro Leagues. Hopefully they'll figure it out.

We’re all hoping they do also because what a loss that will be for everyone all the way around. After reading the article though I don’t have a good feeling about it getting resolved any time soon. I’d go as far as to say that I’d be shocked sadly
