oaklandpats Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 I think a suprising star at Oakland and upcoming is Tyler Mcdonald. Very improved from day 1 when he came here from Siegel he was very out of shape and had a hard time adjusting to the Oakland style that is played. Tyler is hitting above 500% and hit his first homer this weekend. Hope he continues to keep up to his name cause sure as heck he is hitting the ball and getting those runs on the board which is what Oakland needs.

bng85champ Posted April 7, 2009 Report Share Posted April 7, 2009 I've seen alot of these guys ... but dexter cross from Lebanon is the best i've seen so far. adam garner from westview blocks up great and has a cannon behind the plate. i'll throw in his batting average too . . .560 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsumpire11 Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 Jeremy smith from greenback is by far the best catcher in 1A. He has soft hands and can hit. He batted 460 his freshman year and over 500 his sophmore year. i will be looking for him to have a big year I agree, not only is he a great catcher, but his batting average is good AND he is a switch hitter. Ive seen him play catcher, short, third and pitch. He is a great all around player Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1Htsalsa Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 Independence #26 Solid defensively, good hands, quick feet, blocks well Opposing coaches don't waste many base runners on him. Solid snap throws to first and third (likes left handed batters with a runner on !) Good power to both sides of the field Handles his pitchers well and calls his own game.

rustyshakleford2 Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 Who have you seen thats good? All ages all places? Word is, is that rockwood's got a pretty good sophomore catcher. Got his throw down to 1.9 consecutive times. I expect good things out of this you man. I believe his name is Lucas Jolley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCHSFAN Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 Bryan Lewis from Jeff County has a cannon for an arm and is not afraid to throw behind runners on any base. Very good at blocking the plate and a good hitter with power also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFridge06 Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 Blackman has a very very formidable duo in Hunter Mitchem and Zander Wiel. Zander Wiel is an up and coming STAR while Mitchem is a kind of a coach on the field catcher for Blackman High School. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tromo Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 soph j davis cookeville one of the best i have seen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
droppinbombs09 Posted May 1, 2009 Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 I've seen alot of these guys ... but dexter cross from Lebanon is the best i've seen so far. no doubt about it, cross is at least the best in the mid state and probably more than that. 1.7 pop time and was leading the team in RBI's.

OHSBobcat1 Posted May 1, 2009 Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 no doubt about it, cross is at least the best in the mid state and probably more than that. 1.7 pop time and was leading the team in RBI's. No where near best in mid-state kid got cut from hit after hit summer team in favor of Luke Fennel, Connor Moore, and Scott Lynn so there is three that are better according to one of the best summer teams in the state.
