I saw in a past post that Brett Thomas was playing for the Orange County Flyers last summer, does anyone if he still is, didnt see his name on the 2008 roster.

Also, does anyone know if any of these guys are palying anywhere:

Jess Maloney-Gboro
Pat Burgess- Gboro
Ryan Anderson- SU
David Jenkins-SU
Mark Wooten-NCWC
Ben Pearson- NCWC
Matt Hunt-Methodist

I think Wooten was going to attend some tryouts but I am not sure what has come of it.  Not to sure about Ben Pearson either.

VWC gets another impressive pitching performance out of Daniel Samuels, as the Marlins improve to 8-2-1 with a 15-4 pounding on Ferrum.  Brandon Hathaway connected for a 3-run homer, the first of his collegiate career.
The Marlins are on a roll, hopefully the momentum will stay up for this weekends DH against Eastern Mennonite.

I dont know what has gone sour for the Panthers, but they have lost five in a row. Their only victories are sweeps over Huntingdon (3-10) and Averett (8-12).

Ferrum has fully justified that they are the worst team in the USA South with a pitching staff ERA of over 5.50 and only player (Franklin) with double digit RBI's (11).

Last I checked Virginia Wesleyan has four losses. They lost to Averett, HSC, W & L, and Methodist.

Ferrum can't be the worst team if they swept Averett.

the monarchs get a 6-5 victory over b'water to push their record to 14-6 - bisp struggled again, but kisiah came in and cleaned up, going 6.1 and striking out 4 for the win - he's really having a great year at 3-1 with a 2.13 era - this out of a player who had a career 1-2 record with a 5+ era coming into his senior year - he's really settled into the casey varnell/fred geisinger role of a guy who goes long and spot starts during the week and goes short on the weekend

[narch]

mu is on a nice little 5 game roll, winning 8-4 yesterday - jordan went 7 and gave up just 2 er - i hope the pitching stays solid and maybe kivett can get on another tear this weekend...sure would be nice

[NCWC]

Should be a good matchup this weekend at Bauer Field the Red Sox Yankee rivalry of the USAS.  I have a feeling that Tom Austin will look at the Fielding Percentage of NCWC adn attack them by use of the dreaded small ball.  And maybe just maybe he will stop stealing signals like Bellecheck!

I didn't realize that Tom Austin videotapes NCWC practices

He doesn't have to anymore.  He watched the first couple of tapes enough to figure out what a good team looks like and now he models his team after us.  Seriously, Im not sure about the video tapes but he has sent or people affiliated with the MU baseball program have shown up to games a couple days before the big meeting.  When reached for comment, Stone Cold Tom Austin, denied any allegations or association with these scouting methods.

I heard Narch was the person Austin was sending down to steal our signs and scout us.  Just what I heard but I can not reveal my source at this point.  I this point it is a still just a rumor.

[Falcon2720]

If Narch can pick up the signs, those signs obviously are pretty bad

you're on to me, boys

ironically enough, stealing signs was probably my greatest asset as baseball player - .200 hitting catchers with no power and even less speed have to have to develop other skills to stay on the field

Falcon you shouldn't discount Narch like that.

My best skill was getting under the skin of the other pitchers.  Bird, animal, and other various loud noises.  It may have been busch but nobody complains when they are drunk

freddy g comes through for the monarchs with a cg w over the bishops, kivett hits another bomb and betterly has a 3 rbi day - mu also gets 5 steals on the day - the monarchs are now 16-6/4-1 - they should have toth and kisiah, at the very least, available sunday with the full bullpen ready to rock if needed - nice win, boys
