Production duties await tonight (hey, you want a matinal paper, right?) but here are a few items of note before we rise checking the wires, etc., to top up Saturday’s paper. -------- The major-league compose is this Tuesday through Thursday. (Thanks to TV, which will now sow the firstly throughout active on Tuesday night, they’ve managed to unite an further epoch to what formerly was a two-day answer and screw with a formula that was very media-friendly.) Anyhow, we’ve got conflicts with the Corvallis Knights all three days so co-worker will be handling those stories.
We figure junior catcher Ryan Ortiz to be gone, and minor pitcher Jorge Reyes is in all probability liking in that direction. Hey, it’s none of my business, but as for anyone else, unless the put on the market is life-changing, why do a moonlight flit college, or drown in red ink to stick out college if you’re a high-school or JC signee? Where’s the upside? Of course, as said, it’s not our mortal and no one asked us. If someone decides to cyclone off their decisive year of college for $20K and a bus ticket to the Appalachian or Pioneer leagues, that’s his business. We can’t make known from experience; there was no draft for college sportswriters who’d completed their lesser year in 1975. Had there been, the Blog might have been a 50th rounded hand-picked by the Minot Daily News out of the the University of Richmond, and given a spoiled polyester supplication and a 1971 Vega Kamelback as a signing bonus.
Wait, that’s what happened in 1976; a operation and $520 a month, with no per diem … --------- The Beavers have patently (can’t turn the tilde over the N in Canada) to a letter-of-intent for the 2010 season, although they haven’t announced it officially yet. The Colts take part in in the Coast Conference; Canada is located in Redwood City, Calif., and is the alma mater of Corvallis High clan Harold Reynolds. Viegas hit.351, with six homers and 27 RBIs, in 41 games, and also tippet 29 bases in 34 attempts.
It sounds get a kick out of a incredibly sturdy program; to the CC baseball website. ---------- The Mount Hood Community College newspaper, The Advocate, reports that of David Ard, a scale of Prairie High in Vancouver, Wash., and the NWAACC’s Player of the Year.
That would get across why he and his pops were spotted on campus earlier this week, talking with some folks who have a beautiful respected scheme of how the OSU baseball program operates, no? And the Corvallis Knights announced Friday that Ard will enjoy oneself for them this summer. Sounds as if he’s accepted to be a Beaver, no? The Knights announced another signing on Friday, lower pitcher Steve Kalush of Santa Clara of the West Coast Conference. Kalush had four saves for the Broncos this late pop and deliberate after summer in the Cape Cod League. Remember, our Knights opening will be in Monday’s assignment and the time starts at 6:35 p.m. Tuesday against Bend at Goss Stadium. -------- OSU 2011 assign Zach Moeller of McNary McNary will space Roseburg at 5 p.m. That game, of course, will be preceeded by the 5A documentation of ownership game, pitting the great, wonderful, noteworthy Corvallis High Spartans against Thurston at 1:30 p.m. The Spartans will be seeking CHS’s senior condition right since 1986, when maybe the greatest Spartan team ever - it featured MLB draftees Brian Champion, Derek Heyden, Lenny McGuire and Matt Williams, as well as time to come OSU letterman Robb Mouw - won CHS’s most new baseball title, 5-2 over Medford in a nervy played at Roseburg.
And if my tribute doesn’t sink me, Friend O’ the Blog Nick Todorovich of Corvallis caught the stand up out, a sail ball to red field. ------- Beavers catcher Mike Chiarelli and late Beavers pitchers Tyrell Poggemeyer and Alex Besaw will place for the Bellingham Bells in the WCL this summer, in the Bellingham Herald. The Bells action the Corvallis Knights at Goss Stadium on June 19-21 and July 20-22.
Sometime in the very renewed prospective we’ll have all the summer club destinations of the Beavers. Of course, Sam Gaviglio, James Nygren, Carter Bell and Brent Warren are playing for the Knights. OSU pitcher Nick Stiltner is playing for the Bend Elks, in Corvallis this Tuesday-Thursday, for the annual fireworks show on July 3, and on Aug. 7-8. Pitcher Ryan Gorton is playing in Wenatchee; neither the AppleSox or Kelowna take in the Knights this year because of the WCL’s new unsymmetric schedule. -------- The Shreveport-Bossier Captains of the unfettered American Association have signed ex-Beavers outfielder Geoff Wagner.
