Speaking of NH players congrats to Brian Wilson out of Londonderry who was just moved up to the Giants AA team in Norwich

Brian played with us in the summer between his soph and junior years in HS--he went on to have a fine carreer at LSU, then have TJ and now is back on a roll

Way to go Brian--we will be over to see you shortly in Norwich

All the info I have on the kid, some of it from him is that he is a 06-- perhaps we are talking about two different youmg men?

Such good news seeing where his velocity is
after TJ surgery. Hit 99 last week! Was a huge "positive" for my son in a poor program. We wish him every success.

We had the pleasure of Brian playing on our travel team when he was in HS---

Great to see him back and throwing like he should--hope to get over and see him at Norwich shortly

Great kid and a great talent

TR

His Mom got in touch with me Sunday night to tell us that he had been promoted to AAA....

We are all quite bummed here, as we have made great plans to fill the stadium Monday....

And, I would not be suprised if the Sept callup was to follow...hope he mows them down.

Chill

Saw that it happened and he is set to play in the Arizona Fall League as well

Good things are happening for a fine young man

Another young granite state pitcher that just received a "call up" is Kyle Jackson from Litchfield (Alvirne High) Kyle is now a member of the Portland Sea Dogs. Way to go Kyle!!! Can't wait to see him pitch! Just think....I knew him when he was my son's first base coach many years back. Also, I would be remiss if I didn't make mention to the great season Chris Carpenter is having!!! I see a CY young in his future! Well deserved! Congrats Chris! Kyle and Chris, you make me proud to be a granite stater!
