According to the UCLA website, his son Brett has been selected as one of the team captains(a very nice recognition for a junior) and is projected to be the starting 1st baseman.
Also, according to Baseball America, one of Doug's signees from the 2003 draft is already recognized as one of the top 10 prospects in the Nationals(Washington D.C. that is) organization.

If you had to pick one or two things (character wise) about your son that would help younger players what would they be.

Thanks and congrats!!!!

Congratulations to all of the familiy. It speaks well for the way he was reared and obviously he has a good gene pool..

You might want to rethink the Fungo teammate thing, though...

Belated "Congratulations" as well!!!!!

Don't post as much anymore due to applications, CSS's, FAFSA's, visits, all that stuff you need to be involved in at this time.

Again, congratulations to one of the most respected 'foundation' members of this great website.
