The draft, DII CWS, and the Lakers...

With the draft right around the corner, it should be an interesting time for the Firebirds. We have some juniors under contract, and draft day could definitely impact our pitching staff. It's a chance you take when you sign them.

On a side note, wanted to congratulate Lynn University and Head Coach Rudy Garbalosa for advancing to the DII CWS. They won their first two games in Carey, NC. They are playing tonight in a winner's bracket game at 7 PM. Head Coach Dan O'Brien and his UC San Diego club also advanced to the DII CWS. Dan and Rudy are two of the really good guys in college baseball.

And speaking of tonight's games, Lakers have a big one in game #5 of the Western Conference Finals. I love the Lakers...
