Anthony Webster

[MrTSSAA]

I saw somthing in the paper the other day about Riverside and I was wondering WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO ANTHONY WEBSTER??? Did he do anything after high school. He was an amazing athlete. I saw him play at Camden and was impressed. This was the same year Camden had TJ Jones and Jonathan Hayes. He made them look stupid....WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM?????????

Playing minor league baseball for the Texas Rangers. He was drafted out of high school in 15th round by the White Sox and was ranked by Baseball America as there #2 player in the organization after his 2nd full season. He was then traded to the Rangers in the trade that involved Carl Everett to the White Sox and was the man cog in the trade. He earned a promotion to AAA at the end of last year but then was moved back down to AA this year. He has put up some impressive minor league numbers but the power is the thing he is lacking and the main reason he's not in the show right now. He's only 24 so he still has time. This coming year will tell the tell. This past season he batted around .280 10hr's and 30 SB'S(lead the Texas League). I think he is free agent this coming yeat so it will be interesting to see who picks him up because he has some definite value. You are right he was very talented kid who could have gone on the play college football at the division 1 level. A player of his caliber just don't come around to often at Riverside, although they had an 8th grader this year on the middle school team that reminds me alot of Anthony when they were the same age.
