Now that the Georgia clay has settled

FBM, with all the extremes of California, I can imagine you have much diplomatic experience!

PG he sees Yorba Linda!

Congratulation to your son. Send him all of our best wishes.

Orlando ...

Been out of town and have just caught up with my reading ...

Belatedly ... This is GREAT NEWS .... Congrats to the whole family.

Orlando...Wonderful news! Amen, Amen, Amen!

congratulations to you and your son.I know how exciting this is for your family!Enjoy!

Orlando,

Congrats on the great accomplishment and good luck to him!

Orlando, since you’ve been an active contributor to the high school baseball web for many years you know this roller coaster ride is full of “ups and downs”. I consider you one of the most knowledgeable posters on the HSBBW but knowledge doesn’t eliminate that good feeling when your son hits a high peak and that sinking feeling when he hit’s a low spot. Congratulations to Aeden and the family. A high peak for sure!!

As they grow older, the boys seem so much more capable of moderating their reactions than we (or at least some of us) parents. I know it takes a conscious effort on my part not to let highs get too high and lows get too low; but it's essential to sanity --- mine and (more importantly) my son's!

We got the word today that another undrafted teammate is on his way to short season; another is going to an Independent League team. There are many pathways to the boys' dream.

Great news for my son's favorite catcher on the Renegades!!!!

Congrats

Orlando,

I just heard about Aeden and wanted to say CONGRATULATIONS!!!! Dreams really do come true!!

Will he still be able to play with the GB team in September?

Please tell Aeden from us we're all thrilled for him.

Orlando's son got his first professional hits (2!) tonight -- and I was there to see it! Scored twice too! What a great night it was here in Eugene. Final score: Ems 9 -- Boise 2.

M -- Coach has gotten the OK from MLB for him to play in Barcelona; the Pads have to give their blessing, but that will depend on the status of things closer to time. Short Season is over a few days before the tournament starts, so fingers crossed!

K --- woohoo! I want to hear exactly what it was like! Thank you for being there!

Go Ems!

Way to go Ems!...send them Spuds packing!
