Best local pro...Scott Speizio from Morris High School; the University of Illinois; and, then the Oakland A's and the Anaheim Angels.

He's a free agent now and I hope that the Cubs get him to play 1st base.

With the bandbox of a field, he'd likely hit 106 home runs next year as a Cubbie.

Best college player...Grant Johnson, rhp, from Lyons Township and the University of Notre Dame.

Huge...Erik Lis is on my list as one of the top local hitters of the past 20 years.
