Best 04's in your Area

I've watched him for years. You neglected his outstanding speed on the bases and his agressiveness and the fact that he's a lefty who throws STRIKES.

 

We had three sophs starting on varsity last year-Deitrich, Little & Mason.

Can you expand on these guys...Positions, hitting, pitching.... anything would be a help. We want to give good players Kudo's.

 

Top '04's

Here are just a few of the top '04's from the Triad area:

Ryan Basham (RHP)- East Forsyth(Kernersville) 6'1"/155- Can touch 88-89, consistent mid-80's with good arm action. Won't turn 17 till end of August so has a lot of upside potential and projects extremely well.

Travis High (RHP/IF)- Wesleyan(High Point) 6'2"/170- Also can reach near 90 with smooth motion. And also has plenty of room to get stronger.

Alex Sink (IF)- Ragsdale(Jamestown) 5'10"/170- Decent arm but great legs with around 6.90/60 speed. Also has good bat with some pop.

Chris Engle (OF)- Wesleyan(High Point) 5'8"/160- Lefty who is a good outfielder with plus arm. Pitches but doesn't get same velocity off mound as he does from the field.

 

Jay McConnell

I got my second opportunity to see Jay McConnell from East Gaston behind the plate (and at the plate) yesterday. He made all-conference as a sophomore over at East Gaston last year and it's easy to see why.

McConnell is easily one of the best looking young catchers I've seen in awhile. Great reflexes & blocking skills, quick as a cat. He has an outstanding baseball build and hits line drive after line drive at the plate. Easily one of the top 04's in the state.

 

Dan Poindexter- West Forsyth
Ryan Atwood- West Forsyth
M.Conway- South stokes (sophomore i think)

 

From Rowan County:

Patrick Adams, West Rowan
Ryan Wilson, West Rowan
Bryan Graham, West Rowan
Seth Waller, West Rowan
Chris McDaniel, West Rowan
Luke Overcash, West Rowan
Bubba Morris, North Rowan
Patrick Atwell, South Rowan
Jack Campbell, Salisbury
Jacob Cooper, East Rowan
Tyler Morgan, East Rowan
Jason Cauble, East Rowan
Micheal Gegorek, East Rowan

They'd make quite a team.
