Hunter Brothers is for sure someone to keep your eye on. He throws hard ( just a guess ) around 90 for his fastball. Will be a lot of help to shelbyville golden eagles this year. Hit great this summer for the franklin outlaws 17s. World Series MVP as a 16 year old. Like his brother Rex (plays for the rockies) Hunter will play for the Lipcomb Bisons. Comes from a great family.

 

Another kid to watch this year is Chris Orphanos for the Riverdale warriors. Went 10 and 1 in summer ball with the outlaws. Fastball around 88 (guess) great breaking ball. Always very focused on the hill, works hard. Always has great control. Hits the corners very well. I would like a up date on the schools that are looking at Chris or has he comitted ?

Jake Little, Jr. Franklin. UT, Vandy, Ky,Southern Ill, & a few others have seen him play or have him on their radar thur coaches & reports on his fielding, hitting & knowledge of the game. He is only a junior & should get several D1 offers or be drafted out of high school.

Hunter Brothers is not a great pitcher. He throws hard but has trouble throwing strikes. Orphanos can pitch but unless he made a big leap this summer, he doesn't throw 88.

Hunter can throw hard and with a little work he will go a long ways. I guess they just gave him that MVP.

 

As for Chris, I saw him pitch in Ft. Meyers and i guess those 10 or 12 radar guns that said 88 were all broke?

 

As for you, I guess you could go 4 for 4 on both on them? :lol::D:roflol::roflol::thumb:

I believe if you go back and read my post, I said unless Orphanos made a big jump, he doesn't throw 88. He was more like 82-83 during the high school season. He may have made a jump and good for him. I also said he was a good pitcher regardless. Brothers does have potential. Anybody that throws that hard does, but as of right now he is not a great pitcher. He wasn't even one of Shelbyville's top three guys by the end of the season last year. If he can consistently find the strike zone, he will be dominant. Until then, he is just an average pitcher that has a chance to shut you down IF he can throw strikes. Those are just the facts. I didn't say I wouldn't want him in Columbia!

    • It is what it is. Sorry DFL.
    • One of the biggest loosing teams in Mid-State are the Macon County Tigerettes. I have noticed that the roster is smaller than in the years past. All the senior's have quit. We have a great group of Jr High players coming up. I sure hope they don't loose them, like they have lost so many others this year. With this young group of girls coming up, a weaker district, they should have no problem going to State. 
    • It was updated this season, because I did it.  Linder is the school's all-time leading rusher at 5,156 yards with 2,436 of those coming in 2014. 
    • Oh, I’m sure you did. Maybe you heard just a rumor, but considering we have a football practice field and a soccer field that’s frequently used for lacrosse games and practices, I highly doubt it. Let me change that. I know for a fact that didn’t happen.   Glad you finally stopped attacking a bunch of high school students, but still obsessed with the coaching staff for some unknown reason, even though you could name more than three (at most) coaches without looking it up. But now come up with something else.
    • You really mean the Price twin boys and Lyin Larry.
