    Ryan Antarka has played baseball since the age of 4 years old. In little league, he played up several divisions and competed with kids 5 years older than him. However, injuries have hurt him throughout his career, causing him to become a less known prospect. Who was once a candidate for the 1st overall pick, his draft stock has dropped significantly, but since being drafted by Alaska, he has begun to train more than ever, trying to prove he can be one of the all time greats in the sport.

While his high school did not give the baseball program enough funding, he was still able to be one of the best players in the country. He caught one game of the polar bears and was immediately hooked. They became his favorite team, with his favorite player being L.J. Morales. Now he dreams of being able to play on the same team.

He managed to put himself on the map as a great outfielder with a cannon of an arm and great vision inside the box. Able to work himself D1 offers and playing in college for 3 years, he’s now ready to make his mark in the big league.

    Kevin Woodchuck. His last name is somewhat of a local legend in his small Southern California town. Allegedly it's because his family has the "broken bat" curse, bats seemed to break more often when they hit the ball. Because of this, his dad always told him "Doesn't matter how hard you hit it. If it's in play, run like hell", and that's exactly what Kevin did. From tee-ball to college, Kevin grew up idolizing Tony Gwynn from his favorite team the Padres, and other contact hitters like Ichiro. Now he's here to hit for average and use his speed to beat out those broken bat singles to prove that you don't need to be a slugger to make it in the big leagues. Just get it in play, and run like hell.

    Kyler Dunlappe is a talented baseball player at Stoneman Douglas, a top high school in Florida, and he’s a true fielding-first utility guy, he can play just about anywhere you want to him to and do great at it. From time to time, he could slug too. He wanted to be the next real 5-tool guy, a Ronald Acuña or a Willie Mays type of player. But, after getting drafted to play in Alaska, he’d have to overcome the adversity of playing it such cold weather, having been born and raised in Parkland, Florida. Adapting to live in the weather will be hard enough for Kyler, but having to learn to play in it for the first time will be extremely tough, but that’s exactly what Kyler is. He’s tough, he’s resilient, he never gives in, never breaks, and is ready for any challenge thrown his way.

    Alfred Elkson is an exciting baseball prospect as he started playing Little League at the age of seven.
    Born in Montana, he has seen a lot of cold weather, making him a great fit for the Polar Bears.
    He was clear at the top of ERA in his high school league, but there wasn’t much competition considering he lived in Montana.
    He batted .438 with 16 homers, 26 RBI and a .953 OPS in his senior year, and got a full scholarship to Maryland University, and stayed there for two years before he was sent off to the MLB Draft.
    He put together a draft combine for the ages, crushing nine out of ten swings out of the park.
    He can play pitcher or the field, whatever position the organization needs him to.

    The phenom "Carl Wheezer nicknamed "C-Dub", is a 19 year old stud from St. Louis California. Growing up, his family couldn't afford many sports, so he had to play baseball. He was the guy who borrowed his teammates' extra gloves, bats, and helmets, but he was always the best on the team. During little league and up until high school he played every position. During highschool, he changed to only pitching and playing shortstop. C-Dub had a highschool ERA of just 0.69 with 11.87 strikeouts per game. On the offensive side, Wheezer had a 0.420 batting average, while hitting 87 homeruns in his 4 year highschool career. Carl was too good for college, so he went to the MLB immediately after highschool. He was so good that he didn't spend anytime in the minors. His rookie season with the Cardinals, C-Dub had a 0.382 BA, a 0.82 ERA, and 72 HR. Of course he won the Rookie of the Year, Cy Young, MVP, Silver Slugger, and more. Although he won a World Series with the Cardinals, he has an interest in leaving to join the Alaska Polar Bears. However, it is up to their GM: Scrawny Slugger.

    Jackson McCracken grew up in Norristown, Pennsylvania. He played goalkeeper for his middle school's soccer team, but switched over to be a outfielder in baseball. He has amazing speed, and since he played keeper, he has good contact, vision, and plate discipline, but he lacks power. He went to Lansdale Catholic High School and played baseball there for 4 years, but only got one offer to the University of Alaska Anchorage. With no other choices, he went to Alaska and stayed in University all 4 years while still playing baseball, developing his speed more along with his contact. He dreams of playing in the MLB, but there was no MLB team in Alaska, and he is broke from student debts that he needs to pay off.

    Vladimir Guerrero III is a pitcher that didn’t inherit the bat his dad and grandfather had and had a rough start at the plate but would make great throws in the field. He was switched to pitcher, where he played through his years at Toledo to stay close to his dad and to be the first in the 3 generations to go to college. He has a lot of control and power in his arm while trying to get drafted by a team up north where he’s used to while not being shadowed by his father and grandfather’s legacies.

    I love the polar bear series so I have a player for you. Meet Rinto Enokizono.He’s an 18 year old kid from the big city Tokyo. As a kid he wasn’t the best at baseball. He didn’t have space and time but had a dream to enter the draft. He playes a lot of positions. Center field, 2nd base, 3rd base, and shortstop. With Center being his main primary position. He switch hits and a contact hitter that focus on his fast speed. He idolises Seiya Suzuki, Bryce harper, and Cody Bellinger. Because he idolises Suzuki he has the same batting stance as him. He also throws right
    I hope you choose him if you don’t use him pls use him next season

Born in Riverside, California to a father who was a 2 sport athlete in high school playing both football and baseball and a mother who ran track,Danny electric for most of his life has been known for being you guessed it electric. Much like his father and mother he is a speed demon that isn’t shy about his cockiness and isn’t afraid to tell everyone how good he is. With a great deal of speed on the bases and in the outfield, Danny has always been told that he has great potential however much like his mother and father, his Achilles heel is his brash and impulsive tendencies and self absorbed mindset that have made him an absolute chore for both coaches and scouts to deal with.

    Corey Taylor, front man of Slipknot and Stone Sour, has grown tired of the rock star life and has decided that pitching is his new passion. While he is 50 years old, he lies about his age and gets into shape in hopes of making his new dream of making the MLB come true. He decides his jersey number will be 8, continuing his legacy as number 8 of Slipknot. He makes his walkout song 'Duality' as to remember his past, and his wild path in life. He gets drafted and is told by his club that they will use him at the relief/closing role, and while it's not his first choice, he's happy with it.

    I think L.J is going to have an MVP winning season.
    Alec Weinstein's (pitcher) journey through life has been nothing short of a fairy tale, filled with remarkable achievements at every turn. At just 8 years old, Alec was already working at McDonald's, where he learned the value of hard work and dedication. His small hands flipped burgers and prepared meals, all the while dreaming of something greater.
    By the age of 9, Alec's interests had taken a sharp turn towards the skies. He began building model airplanes, each one more complex and detailed than the last. His passion for aviation was evident, and his creations were nothing short of masterpieces. His ability to understand and construct these intricate models showcased his exceptional intelligence and creativity.
    Then, at the age of 10, Alec made a leap that stunned everyone around him. He became the owner of the LA Lakers, a feat unheard of for someone so young. His sharp business mind and love for sports allowed him to manage the team with a maturity far beyond his years. Under his leadership, the Lakers saw a resurgence, and Alec became a well-known figure in the sports world.
    Now, Alec Weinstein is on the cusp of yet another incredible chapter in his life. As one of the top prospects for the Alaska Polar Bears in Major League Baseball, his talent on the field is undeniable. Scouts are in awe of his natural ability, and fans are eagerly anticipating his debut. Alec's journey from a young worker at McDonald's to a top MLB pitching prospect is a testament to his relentless drive and extraordinary talent. His story is one of inspiration, showing that with hard work and passion, anything is possible.

    Michael Pitcher, who is a pitcher. Born 2007 in rural Canada, Rocky Mountains. When he was 16, the Alaska Polar Bears became his new favourite team, hoping to one day join them in the MLB, following the footsteps of Avi Tick, his favourite player. He started playing baseball when he was nine, having an arm that had great stamina. He built this up by spending hours a week throwing at a target, trying hard to improve his speed, accuracy and break. Without coaches, it was hard, trying to copy Avi Tick in mechanics, leading to consistency. Michael developed his own warm up routine, further building his stamina, allowing him to become a starter. He was overlooked due to his low overall, because of his lack of coaching, yet his Dad always told him to persevere. He was drafted by the Polar Bears, seeing his great potential if given time and proper coaching. Hopefully the Polar Bears can channel Michael Pitcher’s potential.

    I’ve been trying to make a good story so I decide to make an actual story
    *The Unlikely Dream*
    In the small town of Juneau, Alaska, where the rugged wilderness meets the vast ocean, a young athlete named Tannen Toney grew up with an unrelenting passion for baseball. Despite the remote location and limited resources, Tannen's dedication and natural talent propelled him toward an unlikely dream: playing in the Major Leagues.
    *Early Beginnings*
    Tannen's journey began on makeshift diamond fields carved out of Juneau's forests. With makeshift bats and worn-out baseballs, he honed his skills alongside friends and family. His father, Tlingit Native American and an avid baseball fan, coached him tirelessly.
    *The Long Climb*
    After dominating Alaska's high school leagues, Tannen joined the summer league team, the Juneau Glacier Pilots. College scouts noticed his prowess, leading to a scholarship at Oregon State University.
    *College and Beyond*
    Tannen excelled in college, earning All-Conference honors. He was drafted by the Los Angeles Angels in the 10th round but opted to return for his senior year.
    *Minor Leagues*
    1. *Rookie League*: Orem Owlz
    2. *Single-A*: Cedar Rapids Kernels
    3. *High-A*: Inland Empire 66ers
    Tannen faced setbacks and injuries but persevered.
    *Breakthrough*
    A stellar season with the Double-A Rocket City Trash Pandas earned Tannen an invite to the Bears' spring training.
    *MLB Debut*
    On a crisp April evening, Tannen Toney donned the Bears' uniform, pinch-hitting against the Yankees. As he stepped up to the plate, the crowd's roar drowned out the doubts of those who said an Alaskan kid couldn't make it.

    Ralph Esqueda (Nickname: Hope) has never played baseball in his whole life. He doesn't start his love for baseball until his freshmen year of high school. When in one of his field trips, they went to an Angels' Game, which change his prospective of baseball for life. He now starts to love baseball and is also an Angels' fan. Now his dream is to be with the Angels and play for them with star Mike Trout. (His role model.)
    He started to play baseball in his junior year of high school, but didn't go so well since his experience was pretty much as we expected. He was pretty much sad that he didn't make it to his high school team, and thought he was never going to be in the big leagues. Until his mom change his life and sign him up to a different team. He was the same as his tryout, but he kept on working his baseball skills, so he can have his dream, come to reality.
    6 years later, he gets a mysteries call from an unknown number. It was the Los Angeles Angels manager, asking for him to come to play for the Angels. He was happy that he his dream was about to happen. He did train his butt of to get where he is. He was now different since the last time we remember him. There he goes, to play for the team he fells in love with.
    Unfortunately, his dreams soon be crushed, when the Angels trade him to Alaska Polar Bears, since he was having his rough season. He thought it will be over, and his dream was crushed. He really doesn't want to play against the Angels, and forever be in the Halos. However, he doesn't want his skill to be wasted and try to play for the Polar Bears. Where he wants to prove that he deserve to be with the Angels. Here we are, his dream to come back for the Angels, and restore his dream that he once has in high school. Is his dream to play with the Halos over? Only one way to find out?

    The Curious Case of Three-Finger Mordekai Ackermann
    Mordekai Ackermann was not your average baseball prospect. First off, he didn’t even play the position that most scouts were interested in-at least, not in the traditional sense. While everyone else was throwing fastballs and curveballs that could make grown men weep, Mordekai had a pitch that defied physics, logic, and most importantly, common sense. A pitch so weird, so erratic, that people started calling him "Three-Finger" Mordekai. But it wasn’t because he was a quirky guy-well, he was quirky-but it had everything to do with the fact that he was, quite literally, missing a finger.
    It all started when Mordekai was six years old. His father, a man of dubious wisdom and a few too many DIY projects under his belt, had decided to introduce Mordekai to the fine art of “fixing things.” One fateful afternoon, the two were attempting to repair an old lawnmower in the garage. Mordekai, always the curious one, reached in to pull the starter cord. But in an unexpected twist of fate (and mechanics), the cord snapped back with the force of a spring-loaded bear trap.
    Long story short, Mordekai lost his pinky.
    Now, losing a pinky wasn’t a huge deal in the grand scheme of things. Sure, there was some trauma, a trip to the ER, and a fair bit of explaining to do to his grandmother (who now kept a collection of "How did Mordekai lose his pinky?" stories for family reunions), but it wasn’t what you might call a career-ending injury. What it did do, however, was make Mordekai’s grip on a baseball a little… unconventional.
    Without that pinky, his hands gripped the ball differently than anyone else. His fastballs had a weird wobble. His curveballs... well, they didn’t curve so much as spin like they’d been possessed by a poltergeist. But the real magic came when he decided to try the knuckleball. At first, Mordekai wasn’t even sure what he was doing. He didn’t have the textbook grip, nor did he have the finesse of a seasoned knuckleballer. But his strange grip and quirky delivery produced something extraordinary. The ball didn’t just flutter like a regular knuckleball-it danced like a waltz on a trampoline. No one could predict where it would go. One minute it’d be high, the next, it’d dip like a breaking wave, and then-BOOM-it’d hit the batter in the shin. It was the most unpredictable thing anyone had ever seen, and for that reason, the scouts loved it. At age 17, Mordekai found himself at a scout's showcase in a dusty, rundown minor league stadium. It was a chilly spring evening, and the air smelled like stale peanuts and regret. The bleachers were filled with eager eyes-hungry for the next big thing. In walked Mordekai, wearing a cap that was just a bit too large for him, and sporting a slight, awkward swagger that came from knowing you were about to throw a pitch no one had ever seen before.
    Mordekai had never been much of a talker, but he made sure to introduce himself with a flourish: “I’m Three-Finger Mordekai Ackermann, and this-” he twirled the baseball in his right hand, "this is a pitch that will make you question the very nature of gravity.” The first batter stepped up-a hulking 250-pound slugger who’d probably never seen a pitch that wasn’t traveling 98 miles per hour. He swung at the first pitch, a perfectly thrown fastball… that ended up in the dugout.
    “Strike one!” the umpire yelled, though everyone knew that wasn’t even close to a strike.
    It was more of an “uncontrollable object that defied all known laws of physics” pitch. Mordekai didn’t flinch. He just winked, wiped his brow, and lobbed in the next pitch.
    The ball came in slow-like an old man trying to get up after a nap-and then suddenly, like a startled pigeon, it flapped sideways, ducking past the batter's knees, then veered back toward his head at the last second. The batter stumbled backward, barely dodging it.
    “Strike two!”
    The crowd was stunned. Not because it was a good pitch. No, it was because they didn’t know how to classify what they had just witnessed. Mordekai, now getting into his rhythm, lined up for the third and final pitch. The batter, now visibly sweating, braced for impact, but Mordekai had one last trick up his sleeve. He threw the ball, and it immediately started floating-no, hovering-just slightly above the batter’s head. For a moment, time seemed to slow down. The batter swung his bat, missing it by inches.
    “Strike three!”
    The batter dropped his bat and stared at Mordekai in disbelief. “What... was that?!”
    Mordekai shrugged, a grin tugging at the corner of his mouth. “A knuckleball, I guess. With a little extra… flare.”
    He might have only had nine fingers, but his knuckleball had ten times the weirdness of anything anyone had ever seen. And that was the kind of prospect teams couldn’t ignore. They never did figure out exactly how it worked-neither did Mordekai-but for as long as he played, one thing was certain: no one could ever hit his pitches… mostly because they were too busy trying to figure out where they were going. 😜

    Gene Dangus (iykyk) - A dangerous closer known for having to fight the urge to assault the batter every time he steps on to the mound. He was a very troubled child, growing up in Chiraq, famed for setting of fireworks inside the stall at school that his principal was using and subsequently being expelled. He went to see a therapist as part of his juvenile detention rehabilitation program and was recommended to try baseball as he could crush the ball and vent out his anger simultaneously. He impressed the scouts heavily by leading his new school's baseball team to a state championship and not letting up a single hit the entirety of the playoffs. But no, that wasn't enough to quench his thirst for violence. During the award ceremony, he started to assault the opposing team's coach with the MVP trophy. His therapist then recommended he go on vacation to some tropical destination in hopes of purifying his soul. Unfortunately for the therapist, he visited the Dominican Republic and upped his velo by 6 mph reaching the fabled 105mph. From then on being known for throwing gas, a scout from the Polar Bears came across a clip of him on worldstar throwing 50 pound kettle bells 70mph. He dropped everything and offered Gene a conditional contract saying that he can play baseball in Alaska. Although, if he couldn't control his anger and started to harm any of his teammates or opponents, he would be forced to walk the Bering Straight fully naked in the cold of winter. Gene considered briefly but ultimately accepted.
    P.S. : I'm writing this while studying for an organic chemistry midterm this Monday, wish me luck!
