Notes
I’m going to bet Carroll goes to the Futures Game and ends up promoted to Double-A shortly after the showcase. He’s shown no signs of slowing down after looking like the best player in all of Arizona during 2020 instructs. This is the kind of player who’s going to out-produce his raw power in games because the quality of his contact is just so good. His homer yesterday (which tied the game in the ninth) was hit to the opposite field. It wasn’t like a lot of oppo bombs that rely on brute strength (think of Giancarlo Stanton’s right-center homers) or just happen to suit the swing path of someone with big power (Ryan Howard). Instead, Carroll just dove to try to cover the outer third of the plate and poked the barrel there, and he hit the bottom of the ball with the sweet spot of the bat.
Lamar Odom shares an emotional message after the death of his father, Joseph Odom.
It has been reported that Joseph passed away on April 20th. The former basketball star went on to speak on his father.
“My pops and I had our differences but at the end of the day I knew he loved me and I loved him and that’s really all that matters.” He also posted on his social media a thank you message to everyone who extended their love and prayers.
