The Little Giant

Skyler Stromsmoe has always said he was “more will than skill.”

Tugboat Traded

The Cleveland Guardians have netted a major return in exchange for Canadian pitching prospect Matt “Tugboat” Wilkinson.

The left-handed pitcher, who trained at Dawgs Academy in Okotoks before starring for the Dawgs in the Western Canadian Baseball League (WCBL), was dealt – along with their 29th overall competitive balance pick in the 2026 Major League Baseball (MLB) Draft – to the San Francisco Giants in exchange for two-time Gold Glove winning catcher Patrick Bailey on May 9th.
