No-hitter alert!

 We had our second Strat-Fest at Joe Kool's in Novi and we got our second no-hitter there!  On what was a dismal day for the Boston Bobcats, Cole Ragans put on a show and completed a no-hitter against the Pittsburgh Phantoms!!!  This was actually the third no-hitter of this season, which I believe is a record for this league.  

I can only trace no-hitters back to the 2008 season, but here is a list of all no-hitters since then....

 Montreal Off-season getting started early. 

Trimming the fat off of the Grizzlies as we prepare for another bottom 5 finish in the Friendship League, as the Grizzlies shared some similarities with the 2025 Tigers, as we had some elite pitching, but could not get the bats going to save our season, and for some, their jobs as ball players.

Without further ado, here is Montreal's WAY TOO SOON, but probable cuts.

Key: NC=No Card. 

1.) Dairon (1-18 STL) Blanco, (OF) - NC, 2.) Vaughn Grissom, (2B), - NC, 3.) Richie "The Kid" Palacios INF/OF, limited AB's, 4.) Alex Verdugo (OF), NC, 5.) Michael Kopech (RP), - NC, 6.) Corbin Burnes -(SP) - NC, 7.) Freddy Fermin (C), 8.) David Fry (UTL), 9.) Cristin Javier (SP), 10.) Greg Weissert (RP), 11.) Davis Schneider (2B). 12. ) Ben "Tommy John" Joyce, 13.) Zeke Duran (UTL). 

Keepers: Pitchers: 1.) T. Skubal (LHP), 2.) G. Crochet (LHP), 3.) G. Kirby (RHP), 4.) J. Leiter (RHP), 5.) Taj Bradley (RHP), 6.) Brayan Abreu, (RP), 7.) J. Hader (RP), 8.) E. Clase (RP).

The rest will be like if a Grizz can hear a tree fall in the woods.  (Again way too early but more than likely this list will not change much).
