The Floro kid is the real deal and we will be hearing alot from him the next couple of years. He is not only a good pitcher but he is a ball player in all aspects of the game. The Bulldogs future looks very bright with the talent that will be coming through the system in the next 4 to 5 years. By the way Mark there is a kid from Modesto High School that I work with his grandmother and supposedly his is a very good player. He is looking for a 16 to 17 year old team to play for during the off season and I mentioned your team. I do not know anything about the kid but I figured you would be able to find out. I will try and get his name for you and let you know. If you want you can give me a call @ 209-345-7946. I hope all the up and coming kids have some great years for Turlock or Pittman either one which ever school they go to. Mark what is the latest rumor on the head coaching job at Turlock? I have heard several rumors and several names that supposedly has been mentioned if the position come open. What do you know about it?

Mark the kid's name is Rucker. I think his first name is Derrick, like I said I know nothing about him but maybe you want to take a look. I hope Mendo stays for at least 3 more years.

Mark; Does Floro play for Atwater or for Buhach? Or are they the same school? I had a nephew graduate from Buhach last year and I remember the Floro name.

So Guys, I know you had a meeting last night about the new teams and redrafting the leagues and I was wondering how that went ?? Are you still redrafting all teams?

Yea, we are still redrafting. The board has spoken and yes, I still don't like it. But, we voted to interleague so, that will be good.
Now we just have to wait for the numbers to come in and see how many teams.
Based on the average team needing 4 player and adding 12 for each expansion team. It looks like National will be adding approximately 56 players to the majors this year. and National South will be adding approximately 30 additional players to fill out the one expansion and fill the original teams.
Should be interesting. Good Luck to everybody in 08.
Go Giants.

Scrapper, I know the N/NS only have 6-12's per team but instead of watering down all the teams and adding so many teams why don't you consider have 8-12's per team and adding fewer teams. Just a thought ?

It will be interesting. Because the first three round will be existing twelves, and I think the way it is going to happen is the you have to take your option's first.
The second three rounds will be the 10-11's existing players.
The third three rounds will be new 12 yrs olds '
The fourth three rounds will be new 10-11's
It is going to be interesting.
Predictions
I predict that the second place team will have no more than 12 wins total. I hope I am wrong on that.
National
Dodgers -- Nationals -- D-Backs-- Cardinals -- Giants -- Marlins - Braves- Rockies--
National South
Padres Mets Pirates

I hope I am wrong on that. the coach with the keenest sense as a talent evaluator for individual and more importantly team talent will win the league......i dont care if he has the 3rd or the 4th pick.......of course he has to be a good coach as well......but usually good evaluators are also very good coaches....the league will be won by the team that can pick the best players on draft rounds 6-12
