From RollTide.com today...


Garner signed as an undrafted free agent last week with the Kansas City Royals and has been assigned to the Arizona Rookie League at the Surprise Recreation Campus in Surprise, Ariz.

The Sturgis, Miss., native led the Crimson Tide with a .365 (88-for-241) with two home runs and 29 RBI. Garner also led Alabama in runs scored (64), total hits (88), triples (4) and stolen bases.

He was the Crimson Tide's leading hitter in SEC play each of the last two seasons.

Travis kind of reminds me of Rice LF, intense and gutty. He should do ok as long as he brings those qualities with him. He has the ability to make things happen and I wish him well.
