Durbin led off the game by setting the pace for a tight battle: He hit a foul pop that was caught by the catcher. Damn. In the third, he lined out to the left-fielder. In the fifth, he drew a walk. (There was a runner on second, so the greatest base-stealer in Arizona Fall League history could not steal. Damn.) In the seventh, he flew out "sharply" to the left-fielder. In the ninth, Durbin grounded out "softly" to the SS. No word on how close the play was at first. Damn.
Next up, the 5'6" utility Arizona base-stealing legend will prepare for mid-February, when pitchers and catchers arrive in Tampa, for the Caleb Durbin-led 2025 Yankees.
There is some yatta-yatta about the championship game, which involved other prospects, from other teams. Honestly, who cares? Caleb Durbin! Ca-Durb! C-Dur! The Durb! That's all we need to know.

The Yankees showed flashes of playing small ball this past season. Given his height, Durbin would be great at that.
I dunno. The boys in the analytics department think he's too short to play baseball. What's his velo and launch angle? Can he hit strikes harder?
Recommendation: trade him for Joey Gallo.
That's the ticket. Yeah.
Not sure why all the hate for Durbin is going around. My take : he will be a successful MLB player long after JD and Spencer Jones are gone and forgotten.
Put Mike Tyson at 1st
Ca Durb.
Great. Fucking awesome.
Who is hating Caleb? He's the new Freddy Patek.
Grate minds …… i suggest this yeasterday :
Just a thought but, uh….maybe we can get Mike Tyson to play first base in 2025.
