Centerfield Old-Timey Member Posted January 31, 2017 Author Posted January 31, 2017 Oh crap. Wrong forum. Can one of you Russian-Sympathists move to the Baseball Forum?
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 Looks more like an infielder's body.
Centerfield Old-Timey Member Posted January 31, 2017 Author Posted January 31, 2017 Hits like one too. Only 2 HR's says the article. But the kid is only 19.
Theoldmole Old-Timey Member Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 I would sign anyone named Yoelkis.
Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 This makes me curious to know if he has any other siblings, and what their names are.
Centerfield Old-Timey Member Posted January 31, 2017 Author Posted January 31, 2017 Endy Chavez' family probably approves of the naming scheme.
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 Yoenis dad and mom separated when he was one, so this is likely a half brother.So while his brother likely misses out on the genes Yoenis got from his Cuban League catcher dad, he still gets to draw from the gene pool of his Olympian softballer mother.
Benjamin Grimm Old-Timey Member Posted January 31, 2017 Posted January 31, 2017 Since the last name is the same, wouldn't Yoelkis more likely be Yoenis' brother from another mother?
