I just learned that there will be a memorial service in Decatur for Mark Mennen. 6:30PM, Thursday at Central Baptist Church. Keep Eric and his family in your prayers.

38, You know exactly who these guys are - they are winners when given the tools to do so. Congratulations on the tournament championship. Bama played hard, well and deserved to win. In the games I have seen this year it is the first time I have seen this talented group of kids play with...

Can someone tell me why Beagle or Redding is not is left field? How many dropped balls and/or misreads does it take? Anyway, congratulations on the win. You guys have us at a bad time (Auburn wise) with Huddleston hurt and Bell out for the season. But, beating Sowers yesterday gives us some...

I'll say this for Moody, you won't have to worry about his effort. He'll give you all he has. His problem used to be pitch selection and he chaces high pitches often. I haven't seen him in awhile and he may be much improved. I'm sure the capable hitting coach at Alabama has worked on this...

Thanks for the kind words for an across state rival guy. Jim will be missed by the entire state and nation.

Jeremy Brown will continue to tear up the minors all the way to Oakland. If you guys don't get Baseball America you need to find a copy of this month's copy [Issue 0311 (or June 8 issue)]. Jeremy is on the front cover and mentioned as the "poster child" of Oakland A's college based recruiting...

Pavkovich.. What do I get if I win? Free season tickets..LOL

38, No, I haven't been sitting next to you, but maybe one day we'll do that. Hotdogs and cokes will be on me. My observations are what any good baseball guy would conclude after watching for a little while. Not to be overly critical, but the assistant coaching staff at UA seem to be only...

You guys are in late season trouble again, due to tired, worn out arms. Flame me if you like, but I'll say what none of you want to say - the problem is in the duggout. When a Head Coach has to pull all the strings (call all pitches, make game playing situations, call offensive & defensive...

You guys and gals continue your "Love In" and I'm outta here. No more factual comments from me. I flamed no one, but stated facts from a baseball perspective. If you cannot handle that, that's okay and I'll leave the board because I'm a mean ole' AU fan. I too am a fan of Alabama baseball and...

Redd, I guess you believe the Iraq Information Minister, too. Facts are facts nomatter who is involved. And, for the record I didn't flame any player's character, only their playing ability and performance. The stats will confirm my claims if you will take time to look at them. I also believe...

Bo, Not wanting to be confrontational, but Avalos is not an outfielder or a baseball player. You can tell he has some athleticism, but his baserunning and outfield play in the series was almost comical. An appendectomy does justify poor reads off the bat, bad angles to the balls, poor throws to...

I'm in total agreement with 38 on this one. In most scout's oppinion, you don't have any outfielders. The kid playing the other night was a joke (#1). Sorry, I don't mean to offend but this kid cannot play the game. His running in circles, bobbles and throws reminded me of a lower level high...

NewBBfan, Why the flaming insult? I simply ask a legitimate question and you insult me. Yes, I do know college baseball. I also am a professional baseball scout and know Charlie Lyons will not be drafted next year. The reference was to the new catching recruit, not Lyons. Re-read it. But, let me...

Why does Wells carry so many pitcher? I counted 18 on your roster. You will loose one senior and I counted five new pitchers signed in the early signing period. That's a total of 22 pitchers for the 2004 season. Looking through your game summaries six of these guys haven't seen any time on the...

Why would Vines come to Tuscaloosa with 22 2004 pitchers? With the new recruits and returning players it wouldn't be in his best interest. He is far to talented to ride the pine in Tuscaloosa. Saddly, we won't need him on "the plains" either, but I wouldn't be surprised to see him playing in the...

A few corrections to the list: It's Luke Peavy, not Dan Peavy and he is a catcher. Signed with South Alabama. Josh Markham moved to Riverdale HS in Murfreesboro, Tennessee and has signed with David Lipscomb University. Derik Olvey is at Pelham HS and not Hueytown (moved). Tyler Eddy -...
