If it's a knuckler, why wouldn't you throw it again?

I mean, the key to that pitch is you're not completely sure how it's going to move, so throwing it again and again makes sense.

Good story. I love hearing about the things the discussions that sometimes happen at the plate, at first base with a runner on, etc.

Cool. My son caught a foul ball that Trea hit when NC St. played at VT -- BB Hokie 06/09/2016 10:22PM

That's fantastic. I love hearing the stories from/about the guys -- BB Hokie 06/09/2016 10:26PM

Go for it. College will always be there for him to attend, Being a 19yo -- hoosnowahokie 06/09/2016 4:39PM

You say "take that money", but I don't think you quite understand -- Tommy Bowden 06/09/2016 5:49PM

The monthly pay is peanuts, but, for example, the top 55 picks last year -- BB Hokie 06/09/2016 10:36PM

Time to find that out is when you're 19 -- Hokie madman 06/09/2016 7:23PM

Tigers have the 9th pick ** -- Brown Water 06/09/2016 4:36PM

Friend of mine (who I caught for) was the last 1st round pick of the Expos. -- halesvb11 06/09/2016 4:20PM

He may get drafed tomorrow actually -- OrlandoHokie 06/09/2016 4:09PM

Orioles are concentrating on pitchers this draft -- MEHOKIE 06/09/2016 4:37PM

Now they've just got to start developing them. -- Chris Coleman

06/09/2016 4:40PM

I think we are relying on the Yankees model. Let someone else do it. ** -- typed by ben 06/09/2016 9:18PM

Bundy was a lock as a starter until the TJ surgery -- MEHOKIE 06/09/2016 4:57PM

Nice. The baseball draft is always interesting. -- Chris Coleman

06/09/2016 4:03PM

So, he is a High School senior right now? ** -- FfxStationHokie 06/09/2016 4:00PM

If he's a pitcher, he should play pro ball. His arm will be abused -- nolanvt 06/09/2016 3:58PM

Yes. He is a 6-5 205 lb pitcher ** -- OrlandoHokie 06/09/2016 4:06PM

If he's committed Vandy, they're an exception and have a good rep -- nolanvt 06/09/2016 4:20PM

That's true, but it's a lot easier with that much pitching depth.** -- Chris Coleman

06/09/2016 4:26PM

Seeing some of the college and high school pitch counts is crazy. -- Chris Coleman

06/09/2016 4:05PM

Postseason tournaments bring out the worst in college baseball mgrs -- nolanvt 06/09/2016 4:12PM

Wow. ** -- Chris Coleman

06/09/2016 4:13PM

And if he does goes pro, have him get Kenny Lewis' deal -- Late 80s Hokie 06/09/2016 4:01PM

Most do that now, even when drafted from college. ** -- 48zip 06/09/2016 6:12PM

Let us know who it is after the draft. ** -- EDGEMAN 06/09/2016 3:57PM
