  • summer ball

    As nobody has started this chat yet, I'll bring it up.. What's the word on where some of our players will be playing their summer ball? I'm hoping at least a good majority of our guys are playing in some of the area NBC leagues (Jayhawk, Walter Johnson, MINK) so that we can better keep tabs on them. I'm honestly not sure that we have more than 3 or 4 players that should consider playing in the Cod or Northwoods Leagues. Anybody have an initial idea of where our players will be going?

    I think it was Butler who said on one of his shows a few weeks ago that Schwanke was going to Cape Cod.

          Found two of the three juco recruits.

          Justin Seiwald will play for the Orange County Riptide in the Southern California league
          Zach Lewis will play for the LaCrosse Loggers in the NWL
          Tyler Gibson, via his twitter feed, may be playing in Chicago this summer at whichever team uses the UIC Flames baseball stadium.

            Speaking of UIC, the Hutch Monarchs have three or four players from there. Must be a connection in there somewhere.

                From Paul Suellentrop's blog: Summer Destinations for Wichita State Baseball Players

                Also, from the Coastal Plain League's twitter last night: "Defensive Line of the Night: Cody Tyler of the @ILMSharks K'd 11 of 16 outs recorded in 5.1 IP to earn win. 2H 0 ER."

                  Gotta like the Chase Sanburn's assignment. The Holly Springs Salamanders. I wonder if the Geico Gecko is the team's mascot.

                    Tyler Gibson, the OU transfer who played at Seminole State last year, is pitching for the Kansas Cougars of the Kansas Collegiate League Baseball (formerly Walter Johnson League?) this summer. Last night, he went 9 IP with 3ER in an extra inning no-decision against the PC Rangers in the season opener. If the KCLB website is to be believed, he struck out 13 Rangers ... but walked 11 and threw ... gulp ... 180 pitches. (This is almost certainly wrong, as no second pitcher is listed for either team, and the game went 12 innings.) #scorebookfail

                      From what I can tell, that site is still a work in progress. Half the time when I click on something, I get a page not found notice. I'd say it could be a while before we see it totally up and running like it should be

                        There have been rubber armed pitchers, who have thrown 180 pitches before, but it is insanity deluxe.

                          WSU outfielder/pitcher Sam Hilliard will play for Orleans (Mass.) in the Cape Cod League this summer, a late addition to WSU list of summer placements.

                            I don't follow the MLB draft stuff closely enough. Does his inclusion on a Cape Cod team make it any less likely he is considering the draft?

                              That is really difficult to say. I assume how seriously he will consider signing a pro contract will have mostly to do with where he is drafted and what kind of money he is offered.

                              Updated Comment: If he gets off to a hot start in the Cape Cod league he can enhance the dollars that could be offered to him. He doesn't have to sign until July 17th. So sometimes teams will draft and follow how the player is doing and will raise the ante if he is playing well especially in a league like the Cape.
