  • ARIC ALMIROLA Looking for ‘10/10’ Odds in Vegas
    ARIC ALMIROLA Looking for ‘10/10’ Odds in Vegas KANNAPOLIS, North Carolina (Feb. 19, 2020) – This weekend at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, Aric Almirola, driver of the No. 10 Smithfield Ford Mustang for Stewart-Haas Racing (SHR), will make his first start at a 1.5-mile track with his new crew chief Mike Bugarewicz and their new-look team. Since joining SHR in 2018, Almirola has posted top-10 finishes in three of his four Las Vegas starts with a best finish of sixth in the fall 2018 race. He finished 13th last fall. Bugarewicz has six previous starts at Las Vegas, the last five with SHR’s No. 14 team and driver Clint Bowyer, with a best finish of 10th in the spring 2017 race and a pole qualifying effort last fall. Almirola scored his first three Las Vegas top-10s consecutively before last fall’s 13th-place finish and plans to carry the momentum into Sunday’s first of three races of NASCAR’s annual West Coast Swing. In addition to his Cup Series starts at Las Vegas, Almirola has four Xfinity Series starts, never finishing outside the top-17 or starting outside the top-15. The Cuban American has also made three Las Vegas starts in the Gander RV & Outdoors Truck Series and completed all three events inside the top-10. “I’m looking forward to heading to Vegas this weekend,” he said. “It will be a great chance to grow together with ‘Buga’ and the new team to dial in communication and get on the same page.

Generally, we will look into when and why a young man should choose to turn professional. I will begin by throwing out a few provocative rules, and then we will see how the rules line up against the reality of an individual player's ability. The draft is covered in the official rules of Major League Baseball (MLB) under Rule 4.' The draft is held every June 2 by conference call among the thirty major league clubs, and the draft lasts fifty rounds.
