The Mid-South Holiday Showcase was held Saturday at Dulin's Sports Academy in Cordova (outside Memphis). Around 110 invited players attended -- about 60% Seniors and 40% Juniors. Of the Junior catchers, Chris Rezabek from Bolton had the most impressive all-around workout in front of some 15 college coaches and 7 or so MLB scouts. Impressive size (6'3"/195lbs) with sub-2.0 POP Time, great gun with all throws on the bag, bat speed of 70, and the best receiving technique as indicated by an evaluating Dulin's instructor. Best of the best of the 2004 class in the Memphis Mid-South area.

Watson was a Team Tennessee Sunbelt selection that played in Oklahoma in which he played behind the plate and hit 3 hole with some of the best upcoming junior players in the state. He was also a TBCA Worth selection with the states best upcoming seniors and a small amount of upcoming juniors. He was one of two players to be selected, after a tryout, from the Riverdale, Blackman, Oakland area. The other player was Kyle Smith. Watson currently recieved praise from professional evaluators at Doyle Baseball Academy which he attended during the Christmas break.

Tony, Chris Brown has quit the team. I think he quit to be a full time cheerleader. Would have been pushed for the starting position anyway IMHO, by soph Andy Bishop. Has all the tools. Great arm, great speed, and can hit with power.

    • We could sure use some math teachers country wide. Ever go into a store or restaurant and the bill comes to $9.97 and you give them a ten dollar bill and 2 pennies because you wanted a nickle back and then the meltdown starts and the next thing two more people have to come and help figure it out and the place comes to a complete halt. I see this everyday and it's a sad representation of all these schools allowing these kids out the door to get shortchanged the rest of their life. 
    • I like the Pirates chances. I’ll be there as soon as work allows.
    • Stars, I heard we were searching far and wide for some math teachers. Any chance their kids bench press or 40 times are getting checked? LOL I’ve heard good things from 825.  
    • I think it was expected. “Bad” luck I guess to get a couple difference maker QBs in the same class. I thought the decision was made a little early myself, but they were struggling offensively last year.  I assume the running quarterback alco had last year would be a senior this fall, and the transfer would start the following two years in addition to getting a ton of playing time this year. Maybe he waits two yrs, but I doubt it. The kid is good. So is the one who stayed.
    • I'm from Cloudland and we've never played a sectional game.  We need to win tomorrow night to avoid that bus ride.  Us and north greene can play with you guys so I'm expecting good games whoever the matchup is.
