adminbaberuth Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 I'm hungry for some high school baseball. Let's start with your potential No 1 and No 2 pitchers and give me some reasons why they should be looked at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bringingheat3 Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 Well for HJ we lost some really good pitchers last year but we have some good talent coming up this year so its hard to say who are number 1 or 2 will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vhs Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 Over in Vidor I would have to say 1. Hester 2. Sims - Of the pitchers they have these two seem to have the tools and experience over the others. Losing Robicheau to graduation was a big loss in Pirate Land. I'm not really sure who else will be pitching, I've heard Bruce and Griffin's names thrown out there. Beyond that, I'm not sure. I'm really not very familiar with the staffs of the other teams in the area. I know PNG and Ozen both lost their big arms to graduation last year. Who will fill those shoes? I'm with you Admin., Spring cant get here fast enough. My oldest boy is just going to his second year of Coach Pitch (Pinto 8yr old), and I look forward to Spring baseball like kids look forward to Santa.

78Stang Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 WO-S. Probably down to 2 seniors that Will be one and two but they will have a pretty deep staff this year with several underclassmen looking good. Looks like Seniors Cody Hodge and Taylor Bonnin will be the go-to guys. Both are big ,strong and have good control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like Seniors Cody Hodge and Taylor Bonnin will be the go-to guys. Both are big ,strong and have good control. hodge will be the number one but i dont think bonnin will be the number two. that will be between probably taylor turley, who moved from orangefield this year, and two sophomores zane anderson and jordan darnall. they will defenitely be much deeper in pitching this year than the last.

EAGLE07 Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 Barbers Hill graduated all 4 of their starting pitchers from last year ( Thamm-Angelina, Hales-Texas A & M, Silva-San Jac, and Kelley-Galveston ). However, there are some solid arms that have been waiting. I'd look for seniors Jay Burditt ( RH-mid 80's, good curve, great athlete ) and Alex Rocha ( tall righthander 6'4", mid-upper 80's ) to lead the BH pitching staff this year. Also, senior Matt Peterson and junior Michael Bounds should see time on the bump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NHS83LU87 Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 I would predict that Kirby Bellow will be the #1 for Nederland: 2008 stats: 4-2 record with 1 save as a sophomore; batters averaged .159 against him; 55 Ks; around a 1.4 era. The #2 is a toss up between Josh Dean and Cody Laird: Josh Dean: 2-3 record with 1 save; batters averaged .180 against him; 29 Ks; around 4.0 era. Showed best stuff against PNG last year. At least one of the losses he suffered in 2008 was due to lack of run support. Good fastball in the high 80s. Cody Laird: 3-2 record with 1 save; batters averaged .175 against him; 25 Ks; around a 2.0 era. He is a different style than Dean with good off speed pitches making his fastball effective. With Ryan Brady, Conrad roberts, and up and coming pitchers like Jacob Pitts(Sophomore), Ben Jones(Sophomore), and Ryan Quinn(Sophomore) the Dogs should have a solid and deep pitching staff.

adminbaberuth Posted October 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2008 who will bc have this year now that the seniors are gone and so is hicks?? Matt is going to be big lost to BC, but if I was a player I would see an opportunity that over 200 AB's and probaly 100 innings on the mound for the next 2 years would be mine.

Guest gladiator2 Posted October 25, 2008 Report Share Posted October 25, 2008 PNG lost Harrington which is a big loss but they are loaded for this year. Finding enough innings to go around might be hard. They will about 9 quality arms. I would say the top 4 will be: Chris Sweetingham Kane Benoit Matt Woods Jerrin Spikes That is 4 bigtime arms not naming the others because a few are Juniors and may be on the JV due to needing other position players. They have their whole team back except for Carnahan and Harrington. It should be a great season!! I can't wait!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falcolnfanatic Posted October 26, 2008 Report Share Posted October 26, 2008 Huffman's #1 will be Tommy henk 7-1 last year only lost was to the 5A regional finalist westside. He throws mid to upper 80s with great controll of all pitches including a nasty knuckle ball and change up. The #2 will be Blane Hashagen 3-2 last year as a sophomore. only lost to Barbers hill and LCM. Also throws mid to upper 80s with good controll has a great 12-6 curve ball. Huffman's problem this year will be replacing the hitting and defence. we lost 4 out of our top 5 hitters including two Houston area all stars, Our entire out field and left side of the infield including the two time district 21-4a defensive MVP. Desipte these losses huffman should be very strong this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

utguy09 Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 The only pitcher i can think of would be hunter gonzales...but keep hearing stuff about he catcher stefan leger. I hear he is throwing in the upper 80's and touching 90. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bojofootball Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 Hunter gonzales is a possibility. he had a little trouble with control during the summer. But theres another sophmore that did really well on the same team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
