6-12-13  -  Committed to Florida State, Nick Gordon had a big year for Olympia, batting .505 with 50 base hits, 15 doubles and 23 runs scored. He also pitched and posted a 5-1 record.

6-30-13 - Jheremy Brown ‏@JBrownPG  - 2014 OF Michael Gettys (Gainesville, GA) went 2/3 with a double off the wall & a hard line drive triple to LCF Also stole a base #PGTourney

6-27-13  -  Player:  Nate Causey  Position:  C  School:  Arizona State  Date of Birth:  3/6/1993  Height/Weight:  6’2/236  Bats/Throws:  L/R  2014 Class:  College Junior  Previously Drafted:  2011, 46th rd, Rockies  Scouting Report:  from Don Olsen on 6/18/2013 - Nate has a thick build, strong lower half, will fill into a Jim Thome type build.  Strong BP, lots of strength to his game, shows pull power.  Hands have a strong load and bat shows a bit of wrap that leaves him long through the zone.  He has a collapsing backside with some forced lift to the swing.  He shows the bat speed and strength, heavy pull power approach in a “mash or slash” type offensive game. http://bigleaguefutures.net/1/2013/06/27/2014-mlb-draft-profile-nate-causey/

6-27-13  -  Oregon: The Ducks will have plenty of pitching, but the question with this club remains, will they hit? The lack of offensive production killed the Ducks in the NCAA postseason this year, and they'll move forward without first baseman Ryon Healy, who was by far their best hitter this past season. Tommy Thorpe, Jake Reed and Cole Irvin will formulate a very good weekend rotation, while with reliever Jimmie Sherfy likely to sign, sophomore left-hander Garrett Cleavinger would be a perfect type of arm to fill his shoes.
