Yorks' new field is just past the High School on the left. It will be a really nice field by next year.
-
I heard Dekalb looked pretty good against York. How did Yorks' pitchers look?
-
Yes, York is returning everyone and they are opening a new ballpark. Upperman is returning most of their team also and they swept York last year. You never know in baseball, that is why you play the games, should be a fun year!
-
How is Upperman looking so far, I hear they will be very good in 2009. Will anyone in their district be able to hang with them( Dekalb or York maybe!).

] The next one is in June, you have to go to Smokies Baseball.com to register for the HIgh School Baseball Showcase.

Thanks again for all the information, sounds like a good thing the Smokies are doing.agame' date='Feb 18 2009 - 11:00 AM' post='827034580']
My son has gone the last two years. It is worth every penny. Great experience for the young men - a little pressure and a lot of small college scouts mingled with a few major league scouts. It rained during the game part of my son's experience last year so he only got one inning in the field and did not have an appearance at the plate in a game setting, but it was still worth the money. Three coaches personally talked with him afterwards and it helped elevate confidence for personal workouts later on. It is a good local East Tennessee event that draws attention from all over the region.
Best of luck

Thanks for the info!
No..yes..yes
Was unable to get there due to a conflict. Know several players who did attend and was well pleased. Will attend this year.
-
Did anyone go to this last year? How was it, was there a lot of scouts and was it worth the money?
-
Any way you look at it, Upperman is the team to beat, they won it last year.All the other teams will have to go through them. Teams like York and Dekalb and Livingston will have to be at their best to beat them. Just like every year it will come down to pitching and defense, who ever does the best with those 2 aspects will come out on top.
-
Yes, same 9 starters, new coach, and a years more experience. Their defense has to improve and their offense will be better. I am not saying they will win the district, but they will give Upperman a run at it!
-
No, you get a 2.50 ERA because their defense was very bad last year, a ton of unearned runs. Chris and Ty pitched very good most of the year, there was a game or 2 they got roughed up, but mostly done great.If they can find some defense and a little offense, they will be fine.quote name='one2watch' date='Jan 29 2009 - 01:53 PM' post='827017652']

how do you compile a 2.50 era for someone with those score ...... very few innings?
-
Yorks' big 2 are Chris Stockton SR. RHP and Ty Patton JR. RHP. Both had an ERA of 2.50 last year and they both have good mound presence.If they are on their games, York will be tough to handle.
who is they're "big two" ?
-
Brett Patton is Yorks' new coach. He is a pretty smart baseball man and will at least make them hustle alot more.I also agree that Upperman is going to be really tough again this year.It should come down to York and Upperman , if Yorks big 2 at the Pitchers spot improves on last year.sk
sorry to say but york will be the same as they always are ....middle of the pack im guessing 4th or 5th ... proly upperman dekalb macon livingston york smith cannon i am guessing though macon has good pitching to contest .... upperman is a very good team and relating to the york returning 9 ... upperman has been returning 9 SINCE what 2005 or 2006 ? dekalb i agree always a good team they are well coached and will show up every night i have wondered what their pitching staff looks like this year ... Livingston i dunno much about i know they didnt lose many last year but was the ones they lost crucial to replace? they have certainly been a fall out since 05 coming off back to back to back district titles to the past three years not making it ... york lost their head coach i believe and he is coaching for livingston or smith or something like that . anyone know who the replacement is ? smith lost a complete ton if i am correct and thats why i think they will be low this year ... cannon has a veteran team and i know the least about them im sure they proly have talent im just waiting for them to prove it to me ... thats just my take on the district
what is you guys thoughts?

Kerry Workman--columbia academy
Chris Stockton, York. He throws 4 quality pitches with pretty good control, and has great mound presence!
-
I will throw three names out there from York Institute: Chris Stockton RHP/3B, Dakota Jones 1B/CF and Micah Norman SS. If York is going to do anything this year, these three are the ones that have to lead the way. Chris is a pitcher that features 4 pitches and does a great job on the mound as well as being a good hitter. Dakota is an excellent 1st Baseman and his OBP is always great. Micah is a solid SS and also handles the bat well, these three hopefully will have good years their senior year and lead York to the State Playoffs.
-
York has a veteran team, but will their talent finally produce wins?
-
Let's see:
Farragut returns-
2008 National Rookie of Year
2 All Americans
4 All State Players
5 All Region Players
6 All District Players
And each of them knows that all that means nothing if they don't do better next year.
York Dragons are returning all their players from
a dissapointing year. They do have a new coach, so maybe they will play totheir potential this year.They have abou 8 seniors, so they better do something this year!
-
The top programs close to you are probably The Yard (Knoxville) or the Knoxville Stars. I am not sure if the Knoxville Stars even field a team in the older age groups anymore.
Thanks, for the info.
-
devin hightower from clarksville aca. 8-1 on the mound last year while batting over 500 and a very strong arm from Center field
York has 3 really good seniors this year. Their 1B, SS and P/3B are all solid ballplayers!

Where do you live?

Watched a great game between Upperman and York yesterday. The 1st game of a double header, Upperman won 1-0 as both pitchers pitched very good games. Don't know the name of Uppermans pitcher, but Chris Stockton pitched for York. Both pitchers were on their game, with Upperman scratching a run in the 6th for the win.
