Eric Brady ('09) from Green Hope was invited to the USA Youth National Team Trials, he's a very good player.... SS, 2B, good bat.... Although he didn't make the roster, the invitation says a lot....

Home Plate you have done it again!!

Back to the topic. Before anyone comes on here and jumps me for leaving anyone off "These are the guys I have seen". Im sure there are other outstanding players in the 09 class. Post information on them if you would like.

#1 Brian Goodwin CF TR BL - Will be a top round draft pick. He is a five tool player. I know several pro scouts that believe he is the top player in NC 09 class and one of the top prospects (posistion players) in the nation.

#2 Levi Micheal SS 3B 2B OF TR SH - Can do it all and does. Power and average from both sides of the plate. Great arm great arm actions tremendous fielder knows the game. Makes routine plays routinely and makes tough plays look routine. The kid is a stud.

#3 Ben Fish C TR BR - As solid as they come behind the plate. Great arm great technique. Advanced abilities behind the dish for a kid his age. Very good hitter with some juice and will only gain more power. Very good field general and pitchers love to throw to him. Great young body. He will be a beast by his senior year.

#4 Bryan Bass 2B TR HL - Tremendous player. Outstanding ability in the middle with a very good arm for his age. Has outstanding range and the ability to make plays other players can not make. Hits from the leftside and barrells balls all day long. As he gets older and stronger I believe he will add alot of power to his game. Right now he is a gap to gap hitter with a great approach at the plate. Really understands the game and gets after it bigtime.

#5 Will Lamm CF TL HL - Stud!! Already verballed to Clemson. Speed great size and tremendous reads off the bat. The kid can rake. The guy has so much upside its ridiculous.

#6 Ethan Carter RHP - At 6'4 and pitching in the upper 80's low 90's already what can you say? Already verballed to USC. He has a nasty Tyler Hibbs like slider and commands his off speed like a kid much older. Outstanding stuff and a great competitor on the hill. A very likely high draft choice.

#7 Sean Pope RHP - I only have seen this kid one time at the Impact Games. Very impressive. Upper 80's stuff with very good command of his off speed stuff. Good athlete especially for a kid with his size. I look forward to seeing alot more of him. He is a very good looking prospect to say the least.

#8 Richie Shaffer RHP (looks like he can play about anywhere) I only have seen him one time but I have heard alot about him. I saw him at the Cary Olympic Complex when the DB's played the JR Olympic Team. I loved his approach at the plate. He started off on the hill and was mid 80's on the stalker and showed a nice cb. I want to see him alot more because from what I saw he looks like a terrific player.

#9 Tyler Joyner LHP - I saw him pitch three times last HS season. This kid is legit. He has already verballed to ECU. I saw him in the 87 range on his fb and I have heard he has been around 88-89. The kid has a nasty slider that just eats up LH hitters. I love the way he competes on the hill. The guy is a warrior on the hill. He shows a presence on the hill that makes it hard to believe he is only 16 years old. He pitches like a mature 22 year old. Great command of his off speed stuff and a lights out "out" pitch make him in my opinion one of the best.

#10 Josh Darroach RHP - I will throw in one of my own here. This kid will pitch in the 84-86 range when he is going good. He has a nice 12-6 deuce and a good cu. Josh will compete and has been very effective on the hill during his HS career. I look for some nice things this season from "Scroach".

I think Kyle Gordon (RHP), '09 Porter Ridge/Dirtbags belongs on that list. Throwing in the 87 - 89 range, with probably the best curve ball of any '09 player. Don't know him, ask some players from the South Charlotte Panthers, they know him.

If I recall i dont believe the dirtbags have ever beaten SCP O9' team. Also, everytime SCP 09' has played the dirtbags 09' the dirtbags seem to find a way to pitch players such as Seth Simmons who has just graduated and the oldest McBride brother. When they met last both the McBride brothers pitched and SCP 09' beat them by ten runs!

Could be, but I recall a tie at Wingate University this year, Gordon pitched the last half of the game for the Dirtbags and shut them down.

ECU BASEBALL: Walker Gourley, a 6-foot, 165-pound junior (2009) shortstop from Eastern Wayne, committed to East Carolina this week.

Use to watch this player in AAU for several years play with the Kinston based Carolina Hurricanes (their coach was a hoot-where are you Jonathon). Walker will be playing his fall ball this year with the Cubs.

This is just another example of how deep the 2009 middle infield talent is in our state.

The score was 0-0 and Seth simmons(07') pitched for the "09" team. Then he came in and finished. I guess whoever SCP had throwing must have been pretty good too.

Both Teams are very good

The SCP 09 and the DB 09 squads are both outstanding. And it is not uncommon for teams to bring in guys to pitch in these tourneys. Ryan Arrowood 08 was on the hill for the SCP 09's this weekend at App State. I have not seen the Gordon kid pitch yet. I have heard he was very good. Hopefully I will get the chance to see him this fall. I did get to see some of the Heat 09 SCP game at App State. It was a very good game. Both teams looked very good.

Then the SCP did not beat the Dirtbags by 10 runs as previously posted. Never posted the P for SCP was not good. They just did not beat the Dirtbags by 10, they tied the Dirtbags. What was the age of Simmons when he pitched that game at Wingate? It is the age of the player, not the graduating year.

Coach May -- SCP only has 1 team for the Fall so no more 2009 SCP. There are 5 or 6 "08s this Fall incl Ryan who has joined the team. 2 of them incl Ryan can play down due to birthdate.

Birdhunter and Average Joe -- Both teams are very good and it'll be a battle every time they play each other so can we end it there?
