  1. Interesting that Michael Williams is listed at IF, he and Maile split the catching duties at UK. Also, O'Conner is only going to be DHing, I think.

    This is an offense that looks like it can really use Richie Shaffer

    1. Watch out for Maile, he is the real deal!

  2. Yes, O'Conner is just listed as a catcher, no place for DH. I think Williams will have to play 1B for now, but I expected Maile to be listed there since he did that quite a bit.

    Almost all RHB, only 2 LHB and a switch hitter.

    On OF Epperson, he's out of Jackson State University, turns 22 on June 30th, listed at 6'3", 215. Here is his JSU page: http://jsutigers.cstv.com/sports/m-basebl/mtt/epperson_charles00.html

  3. I hope this Jose Molina is a better pitcher than our catcher is a catcher.

  6. A little light on position players other than catcher, wouldnt you say? Is that leaving room we hope for some of the higher picks to sign? (oh please oh please) :) Go Gades.

    2. 3B and OF look weak to me, and I don't see anybody on the roster that is listed as an IF that can really help out in the OF. Can't go long with only 3, and one is an NDFA. Luckily of the 4 top 10 picks left to sign there is a 3B (Shaffer) and 2 OF (Toles and Rickard) that were all college or junior college players. So they should go to HV if they sign and it's exactly what HV needs. The pitching looks great on paper, shouldn't be problem.

  7. At first I got excited when I started seeing college picks coming to the Hudson Valley. Then I looked at the stats from those coming from Princeton and our one returnee. Uh-oh, not looking so good. Batting Averages- From HV- Reginatto- .198, From Princeton- DePew-.214, Dixon-.211, O'Conner-.157, Gonzalez-.289. (O'Conner is the DH here, so I really hope his hitting improves- quickly.) Regarding projected Starting Pitchers from Princeton- Last year's ERA's were- Ames-7.12, Spann-3.13, Kendall-4.31, Henderson-4.30, and Guerrieri didn't pitch. I'm trying to be optimistic, but...... (Jose Molina had an ERA of 2.55, but, is not a starter.)
