TRIO HYPE TRIO HYPE TRIO HYPE

Thank you for the kind words, Frank!! Cheers to a great draft tomorrow.

Unfortunately, this will be my last Marlins jersey swap for Lachlan for a while as he sets sail for the VHLE and VHL! #Marlins4ever

— (From L to R) Max Holzer, Lachlan Summers, Dawson Zimmerman SAN DIEGO, CA — VHL/E draftee Lachlan Summers was spotted at a local Pacific Beach bar chatting to none other than star quarterback Dawson Zimmerman and center Max Holzer. With the VHLM draft concluded and the VHLE and VHL drafts quickly approaching, it’s clear Summers needed a way to let loose beforehand. However, nobody could’ve expected he’d find the company of two other athletes who seemingly had no connection to each other prior to the meetup. Summers expects to hear his name announced soon at the VHLE draft and the VHL draft the day following. He is regarded as one of the best goaltender prospects this year after a stellar season with the San Diego Marlins. Meanwhile, Zimmerman is entering his third season with the Savage City Wraiths, who have vastly improved over the course of last season. To round out this group of rising stars, Holzer was just selected 6th overall in the SBDL draft by the young and hungry Louisville Lions. The three young athletes were settled at a booth outside of the bar— enjoying the crisp, cool November weather as they sipped on their drinks. It is a well-known fact that Zimmerman hails from San Diego and Summers just finished up his second season with the Marlins, but what brought Holzer to the city just before the start of the SBDL season?

Peanut butter cookies with mini Reese’s cups decorated like spiders on top, complete with little frosted eyes— that’s Lachlan Summers' plan for dessert this Halloween season. He enjoys the holiday and plans to use it as a time to unwind with his husband Frankie and their beloved dog Addy. He’ll soon become bombarded by offseason activities like the two drafts he’s going to participate in, so he’s going to relish this time off. He decided he’s going to be Anakin Skywalker this year after some urging from Frankie, who planned to dress up as Obi-Wan Kenobi. Nobody told Lachlan that buying a replica lightsaber and Jedi robes would be so expensive, though. At least Frankie was stoked about it. Their house is decorated fairly well (good enough for two people who are extremely busy this time of year, at least), adorned in fake cobwebs and other little knickknacks they managed to pick up at various places. What horrified Lachlan the most, however, was that most stores had Christmas decor displayed already when he was Halloween shopping. He stopped mid-aisle to comprehend the sheer amount of sparkly tinsel and fake snow, with a bemused expression on his face. To him, putting the holiday decorations out so early was a bit of a questionable decision since it’s October. . . but who was he to judge? — Happy Halloween, everyone!

it’s the marlins’ time to shine next season!!

You're very welcome Aimkin!! I'm so glad you like it! I also would love to see these as actual cards so I'm gonna try to figure it out and hopefully something works.

The San Diego Marlins were able to take the Las Vegas Aces to six games in a valiant effort to oust the reigning champs, but fell just short. However, that’s nothing to be ashamed of— many counted the Marlins out before the series even started, predicting they’d be swept and thrown aside. “I still shoulda been better in those last two games, y’know? Maybe things would’ve been different.” Lachlan’s expression was unreadable, his eye twitching. Multiple microphones and cameras were shoved in his face as he stood at his locker during cleanout day. “That being said, the team still played their hearts out. Our squad wasn’t as deep as Vegas’ and we still put up a hell of a fight.” When asked what was next for him, he pondered the thought for a moment. “San Diego’s been my home for two seasons now and I appreciate everything the Marlins organization and the city has done for me and my family. I hope they feel the same way about me. Now it’s time to recharge and get ready for the VHL and VHLE drafts— make a good impression on these general managers.” “Are you nervous about that, Lachlan?” “Do I look nervous?”

Amazing job, y’all! Another stellar edition and a great read.

Review: I love how simple yet eye-catching this graphic is! Fantastic job on the background— the textures were used effectively to emphasize the Team Steel name, but don't take away from the focal point either. Solid job on the color/logo swap on the uniform as well! The only little nitpick I have is that I think you should have only have the player's name written once, and get rid of the one in the bottom right corner, since viewers' eyes will be more drawn to the text above the player's head. Overall, I love this graphic. Amazing job, Masu! GO STEEL! Rating: (9/10)
