Minoring in Twitter: Mike Olt in a bathtub

Cubs prospect Tayler Scott is the first South African player to be drafted by a Major League team… at least according to his Twitter bio. He’s not the first person to become so frustrated with ping pong that he wanted to crawl under a rock and disappear, though. Cubs 2012 first-round pick Albert Almora has the shot:

Nick Green has been around a while (he was drafted back in 1998!) but, despite his 34 years, he still has the ladies chasing him via spam Gmail messages, something that did not exist when he signed with the Braves last century:

Behold, Tony Sanchez’s first Instagram video (parental discretion advised for brief language):

Chipotle Tweets of the Week

Big news this week in the Chipotle world as CNN reports the Mexican restaurant to the Minor League stars admitted it uses genetically modified ingredients in most of its popular dishes (primarily soybean oil). Studies have shown that ingesting high amounts of genetically modified organisms can lead to higher rates of heart disease. So, we’ll await the reaction from the baseball universe. Until then, we present the highs and lows of ordering double portions of genetically-modified meat:
