LF08, who pitched for FW Nolan? By chance was it the Moran kid?

OLF,

Moran did finish the game and pitched well. Murray started and was also very sharp.

Was Murry a JV guy last year, or a move in? I don't recall that name from last season.

He was on the Freshmen team last year.

Feb. 10th

FW. Christian @ Nolan at 7pm

FW Christian 13
Nolan Cath. 0

The Big Righty from FW Christian is as good as they come. Cruising all night in the low 90's with a nice curve. Lots of scouts were present. He may be able to carry FW Christian deep into the playoffs.

You must be talking about Teddy Stankiewicz, great kid and will probaly go in the first three rounds. Keller and SW Christian will miss him. He was a freshman and sophmore at Keller and a junior at SW Christian. Both teams, especially Keller would have been able to go deep in the playoffs if he was was still with the team.

If memory serves, SW Christian lost in the first round last year.

Golden,

That is the kid. He pitched a heck of a game.

Overrated. Dominating average high school players with typical average high school swings.

sounds like he cant decide on what school to play for

He is not overrated. I have seen him pitch many times and dominate very good teams, including the Houston Banditos where he pitched against a line up that includes three potential first two round picks. Oh by the way, I am not related to him. I wish him all the success at the next level whether it be at Arkansas or at the professional level.

Golden Rule is right. He pitched against my son's team in the fall. Large quality pitcher and nice hitter.

Aren't all high school pitchers judged on "average high school players"? I have seen him he is "very good". The Hogs don't recruit you if your not a stud in high school.

WOW so much talk on just one Kid he must be a STUD!! I bet there might be a few more out there too. And they all throw over 90?? That seems to be the magic number in high school baseball

From everything I heard the kid is pretty legit... Sitting in the lows 90's as a high schooler is not usually something that is overrated. Well of course on daddy's gun they all throw low 90s

Hey Michelle, how is Blake doing?

Do not pay to much attention, to thelankylefty. He is either:
A: position player, that got carved up, by Teddy.
B: pitcher that got beat by him.
C: just flat out jealous, that he can't touch 94.
D: All of the above.
E: a dad that any of the above, happened to his son.

Must not be throwing 90 yet

Most of the time, it's not the player's choice, with the school change. He still lives under someone's roof.

I do not know him personally. However, several of our players played with him last year, at SWC. They all say, including their parents, that he's a fine young man.

There are a lot of good highschool pitchers, especially in Texas and more specifically in the DFW area. We are fortunate that we live in an area where we get to see a lot of good ball players and especially very good pitchers. However, not all pitchers throw in the nineties. Not all pitchers have projectability such as being 6.4. No need to be jealous, especially when it is about a kid. I for one am very proud of what he has accomplished. There are a lot of other good pitchers who have success on the mound but the reality is that velocity and height are two of the many talent/gifts that college coaches and professional scouts covet which he has among other skills. Of course there are other things they look at such as make up, the ability to throw strikes, command of other pitchers etc. Just be happy for him, he is not taking anything from anybody child. They all have their gifts which I am happy for them.

Must step on toes when you have to call out kids name on web site. Such childish Men!!!!

@ golden Rule Not Jealous at all! And weather you are 5 ft or 7 ft does not make a difference you can throw 100 miles and hour and not be worth nothing if the spots are not on! And if I can not post somoething on here without you guys getting defensive and have to bring my son's name in this well that is just a shame and immature on yall's part.

Rather I meant not weather. Would not want a English teacher next correcting my spelling!

If nothing else, at least this blog is entertaining. Re: Stankiewicz...you can't teach 6' 4" 220, but I know for a fact that Teddy has worked hard to be in a position to have choices. My son has played with and against him since they were 9 years old. Teddy is the real deal. He throws 90+ with very little effort. No animosity here. We wish him nothing but success.

Michelle33, I for one don't know you or your son. As a matter of practice I try very hard not to criticize any kid. They are young men and not paid proffesionals. My motto particulary as it relates to children is if you don't have anything good to say don't say anything at all. Sometimes being sarcastic is another way of being negative towards a kid. My comment about being jealous was not directed to you per se but to those whose motivation may be coming from a point of jealousy, especially to the poster who said that he was overrated. When I see a kid being criticize and I know that kid I will do my best to defend them, especially when the comments are out of line.

Michelle, I think you meant "whether", not rather. Good luck to your son.
