Reply to "How Did Area Code Tryouts Go?"

I am puzzled why Kaskow did not make AC either. I will say this - he is great in one thing that does not show up in showcases - getting CLUTCH hits. I have seen alot of players that can hit for average but cannot get the hits when they are needed most. Jonathon does. He may very well be the most valuable player on the Tigers team because of that attribute. He is mentally one of the strongest baseball players I have seen. Area Code and PG don't accurately measure that.

I am glad that someone mentioned Jaron Shepard. Everyone needs to remember that name. My son Brian plays against Jaron in HS here in East Texas. Jaron goes to Kilgore HS. His dad Ronnie played for the Bluejays back in the 80's and his brother was drafted by the Yankees about 4 years ago. The kid is a great baseball player as well as a great football player (started as a sophomore on Kilgore's state champion football team). Jaron will get the opportunity to play baseball OR football beyond HS - he just has to decide which one. He is a great kid too.
