If we are talking just high school, Jasper's Girdley was drafted 6th overall and Shepherd's Kolek was drafted 2nd overall.  May not have made that list, but noteworthy.  Of course draft is more about potential than anything else I suppose.  

 

 

Yeah. Josh didn't do a lot after that. We do have Cayne Ueckert with the Cubs. He almost made their bullpen after a great spring last year, but then he struggled with injuries and control at AAA Iowa. This is a huge year for him.

Max Alvis played for Cleveland in the 60's and has more big league service time than anyone out of Jasper. Hopefully, either Cayne or someone else can get there soon.

Phil Hennigan, class of 1964, joined Max Alvis at Cleveland. Pitched five years for Cleveland in relief. But his main claim to fame was he beat a tall skinny, hard throwing kid from Alvin 1-0 back in 1963 I think it was. Anyone know the skinny kids name?

We beat Girdley in the playoffs my senior year.  He threw a complete game on 199 pitches.  I think we won 5-4.  Maybe that’s why he had arm issues….

Yeah. I'm pretty sure he had a 25K (or more??) night against somebody. I'm sure he threw a ton of pitches that night and on a regular basis. I'm all for letting kids throw a decent number of pitches, but not to that extreme at all. They need to be taught how to pitch to contact at times to limit pitch counts.

      What the writer stated wrt crossover votes in the primary/runoff: "Covey and his supporters Paxton and Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick said Phelan only won because Democrats crossed over to vote in the Republican Primary for him. Paxton said Covey’s campaign identified “at least” 1,442 Democrats who voted early in Jefferson County in the primary runoff. Texas does not have party registration, but a voter’s primary voting history is public. The Covey campaign has not released its methodology behind its claim, but  This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up  by The Texan news website found that 9% of Republican voters in the March District 21 primary had voted in one of the previous four Democratic primaries. However, only 5% of that group had voted in all four previous Democratic primaries. What Phelan’s opponents did not mention is historically Democratic Jefferson County is undergoing a political transition towards the Republican party — the county judge switched his affiliation to the GOP in 2017 — so many residents have a mixed primary voting history. And Phelan’s allies in the House dismissed the idea that liberals swung the election. "I knocked on doors, hundreds and hundreds of doors, made calls for Dade,” Republican Rep. Jeff Leach, R-Plano, said on Mark Davis’ radio program Wednesday. “I did not speak to a single Democrat down here in HD21. Not a single one." "

      Will Biden Be The Democratic Nominee For President?

      He's with it enough to do what he's told, beginning day 1 when he signed the order to revoke the Keystone Pipeline project.  But more recently, he's protecting the DOJ, as well as himself ...  This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up

      Most 75-80 year Olds have some type of cognitive impairment. If you are asking if Biden has dementia then my answer is no. That is a Republican talking point. If you all think he has dementia what type do you think he has?
