First inning HR for Mayer. If there is no film of this I am going to start worrying he has to turn into a vampire to hit one out. |

"Marcelo" does sound like the name of one of those Anne Rice vampires, no?

First inning HR for Mayer. I was GOING to post this but vermontsox1 ALWAYS gets there first. Just like Mayer's first HR he beat me by 1 second. Talk about moderator privilege  |

The vampire was utterly white and smooth, as if he were sculpted from bleached bone, and his face was inanimate as a statue, except for two brilliant bushy eyebrows that looked out toward the pitcher like flames in a skull. But then the vampire smiled almost wistfully, and the smooth white substance of his face moved with the infinitely flexible but minimal lines of a cartoon.
The pitcher shuddered, lifting his hand as if to shield himself from a powerful light. He stared at the vampire's full black hair, the waves that were combed over the tips of the ears, the curls that barely touched the tips of his uniform.
"Now, do you still want to pitch to me?" Marcelo asked.

Vampires who can do that kind of damage during the day are specially rare. The legend says that their bloodline can be traced back to the original, which gives them the protection from sunlight. It's a good thing this didn't surface until now, otherwise he would've been a lock for #1 overall. Cant wait until he finally plays night games, which is obviously where most of his value is tied up.

This is embarrassing but I'm the only person here who has seen Vampire Diaries? I hope so -- I fully blame my wife for that years ago. But if you have, you know that Marcelo would fit in perfectly with that cast of characters from his name to his looks.

There’s actually a vampire name Marcel so it’s close enough (also my wife’s favorite show). |

Can we all agree to make the Monday Gameday threads as bonkers as possible going forward?

MLB Pipeline Aug 23rd ...After smashing his first professional home run Saturday, Marcelo Mayer followed with his second blast in his next game Monday. MLB Pipeline's No. 9 overall prospect went 1-for-3 on the day, walking twice and stealing his first base with the Rookie-level Florida Complex League Red Sox. Mayer was a big catalyst in the team's 11-1 seven-inning win over the FCL Braves, scoring all three times he reached base... www.mlb.com/news/top-red-sox-pick-marcelo-mayer-homers-in-second-straight?t=mlb-pipeline-coverage |
