Are you serious? Maybe see where the mi nor league teams are playing and go there. You do realize that Ellsbury is leading the American League in stolen bases don't you? Happy for Kody but don't see him in the majors for at least 2 years.

Good luck to WW tomorrow. Let's get the WIAC to the WS again.

Winter Storm Watch for north of Madison goes into effect Tuesday night. Thinking there could be some games affected by the storm for the rest of the week.  Also congrats to Coach Bloom who got his 300th career win in the second game on Sunday.

What a coincidence.....  Coach Vodenlich got his 300th victory on Sunday in WHitewater's victory over Stout.

Would have thought he would have gotten it last year. But congrats anyway.

Who is Bryan Clark?  I have never heard of him.  That's good news for Point because they'll definitely need more sticks to keep up with Whitewater.  As for Koback, you have your opinion I have mine.  He's what you call a difference maker the type of player that can take you from 5th in the country to the champion.  I have no doubt he'll prove it wherever he lands.  I'm certainly not condoning his behavior but realize he's a once in 10 years type of talent.  He can play any outfield spot, pitch, steal bases, hit home runs, what more would you want?

What DRUGS are you on? You must have seen things that NO ONE else has seen. A once in a 10 year type of talent? Better than Jordan Zimmermann? I'll give you your opinion, but man you don't know talent.

Couple of things...I for one am also a firm believer that certain bits of information are best left between those that experienced the exchange, and if they want everyone to know then they can tell you about it.  As you could probably tell by my last post it was not handled how it should have been, and I'll leave it at that.  He was welcomed back with open arms when he first returned to point after trying out MATC for a week...

...secondly I didn't so much voluntarily leave UWW to head to point as all the other in-conference transfers had done in the past, my situation was a little different.  I was expecting to play out my career as a warhawk, but I'm glad that I got the opportunity to come to point and I will forever consider myself a POINTER!

Dagger you WILL ALWAYS be a Pointer!!!! Miss ya!!

I wasn't planning on following WIAC baseball that closely this year to begin with and will never attend another WIAC baseball game again if Koback transfers to another WIAC school.  

Too funny.

You'd let a single player stop you from EVER attending another WIAC baseball game again.  No offense intended but it that's the case you couldn't have much of a fan/supporter to begin with.   I don't think the Pointers will miss you much.  

Honestlymaybe I'm old school but that's simply absurd.  

Good news for Pointer Fans, No more Suicide Squeeze, Rusty Fishhook, or whatever he wishes to call himself these days. I still don't understand the fantasy worship you have for Koback. As I said before, his freshman year was okay, NOT Jordan Zimmermann junior year good.  He didn't pitch for the Rafters, but hit the ball very well. So how do you project him as a draft pick in 2011?

Drew Eichstadt started as a freshman at Oshkosh and was a very solid infielder and hitter.  He played about 1/2 or less of the season at Oshkosh this past season before leaving the team.  He will be a key contributor for Whitewater and  I would expect him to be in the starting lineup and batting in the top 6 in the lineup.  Huge addition for Whitewater.  Anyone know about Seth McMullen and why he was able to play legion this summer for Wausau?  I thought he played D2 in Minnesota this past season and would have been inelibible to play legion.  Did the rules change or did he not play this past spring?  I wish he were a Pointer.  Every time I see how great Jeff Zielke pitched it just gets me wondering why more and more as to why he wasn't a full time starter for Point.  He was a great closer but I just feel like he may have been shorted a little not getting the chance to be in the rotation.  I will never forget the St. Thomas game 2  years ago he was lights out other than 1 pitch.

You know we couldn't figure it out nor some of the other parents. The game against Menasha on Friday reminded me of that regional game against St. Thomas.

Former UWSP Closer, Jeff Zielke fans 18 in a complete game tonight.  Allowed 1 BB, 6 hits and completes 5 assists. Clyman Canners win 2-0 over Ixonia Snappers in Tri County Night League. Zielke is now 30-0 with a no-decision last week(Left with 7-2 led after 8 innings).  Hasn't lost since 2007.

Well the impressive streak has come to an end.....  Zielke's Clyman Canners lost 1-0 in the NBC semifinals last night to the Menasha Macs.  The game was completed in a swift one hour and twelve minutes.  A solo HR in the third inning provided the only scoring of the game.

Were you at the game? Still pretty impressive run. Clyman has had a problem getting hits lately. Didn't expect them to only have 1 hit in the game. Took longer to get to Menasha than it took to play the game.

Congrats to Ryan Demmin!!! That's two former WIAC players for the Nationals!!!!

Badgerwarhawk  got a question for you.  Any idea if Kyle Lee and Jason Hooper are hurt.  Lee pitched for the Clyman Canners in the Rock River League last year and is on the roster this year.  Jason Hooper was supposed to be on the team as well.  Haven't seen either one of them yet and Whitewater's season has been over for a couple of weeks.

Neither appeared injured at the end of the season however I don't know if anything has happened to either of them since then.
Thanks. We have 3 games this week and are missing about 8 guys. Only pitcher we have is Jeff and he is supposed to pitch on Sunday(ran his record to 28-0 after last Sunday).

I agree that he has been hyped unmercifully.

But is there any evidence that that is HIS fault?  (Quite possibly at least partially Scott Boras's fault, but Strasburg's?)

And for tonight, it looked justified.  We'll see.

You don't have Scott Boras as your agent and expect anything less.

Not really. Just hated how he held out to sign until the deadline, has Scott Boras as his agent, and got a ridiculous amount of money. Prefer guys like Drew Storen who signed the day after he was drafted because he wanted to start his career right away.  Yes it was an OUTSTANDING outing tonight by Strasburg. But if you listened to any of the hype today, he could throw a no-hitter and get pulled because of his pitch count.
