Anchor Drop, May 14, 2022: White Castle Goes Indie Ball

Good morning.

Optional Musical Accompaniment

Former Vanderbilt pitcher Kumar Rocker will play professional baseball... in the Scott Boras special:

Kumar Rocker, the former Vanderbilt ace who did not sign with the New York Mets after they chose him in the first round last year, has signed with the Tri-City Valleycats of the Frontier League. He’ll pitch there before the MLB Draft, where he’s eligible to be selected again.

You’ll remember that the NY Mets are no longer our favorite squadron after low-balling Rocker to the point that he didn’t sign, then trashing him after the fact (and, well, before) by claiming some unspecified injury concern.
