I just saw on X that Jake Schaffner was named the CCBL 10th player of the year. It sounds like a pretty big award, even though I don’t exactly know what it is. I’m going to miss Alex so much, but I think Jake will fit in nicely!

Can report that this is completely accurate, he went to the ER and everything. Most guys (and I have seen many) will leave for much smaller things but not Jake.Hyannis put out a video of him receiving the award and you can hear the PA announcer explaining that he took a fastball off the hand and rather than shutting it down for the summer he came back and played (well).
