what about this bollinger character that was mentioned previously?

he would be my number 4 haha

bollinger should easily be 1 or 2 he was getting scouted by the red sox last year, he just got a letter from oregon state, and he got an invite to go pitch infront on kansas city royals scouts....as a sophomore he was clocked at 88, he is left handed, and i guarentee he has the best changeup in the state bar none

are you his agent already or what? i watched the kid pitch all year last year. i could see 88 maybe once or twice, but hes not quite there yet. reminds me of hennesey from williston, just not on that level yet. give it time

i heard larson from north got clocked and was consistently hitting 88 at state so larson could easily be 1 or 2 as well this year

I'll believe all of this when I see it. I really don't think anyone in the state is throwing that hard. North Dakota ball isn't that talented sadly.

I believe Bollinger has been clocked at 88 or at least around there. Bollinger is a great pitcher and has loads of potential. You obviously have never watched him before. MLB Scouts are already looking at him. He will most likely play Division 1 ball and will end up in the Minors someday.

frenzel will not be closing

mandans quast will be solid

does frenzel even pitch? lol he has a cannon but have never seen him on the hill.

laylock got the OK from me when he turned away minot in the state championship...as a freshman the kid can pitch

heard jensen from VC will be headed to NDSU

In my opinion best proven pitchers from the east in no particular order are Larson, Shutz, Rusch, Kingsley, Kraft, Jensen (hey crappy team, but the kid can pitch) and Jagim even though he had an off legion summer. There of course will be 1 or 2 surprises like always. Don't know too much about the west other then Bollinger, Schroder, and Wentz who will be very good this year.

Frenzel pitched when he played JV as an 8th grader

Skadeland and Alex Hanson from williston can throw heat and hanson can throw some nasty breaking balls

We'll have to see if the boys in Moorhead feel the same way this summer (after the shot shs1240 took at them).

I heard he was offered to walk on. Every one can use left handed pitchers.

he threw 92mph from SS for baseball america...3mph faster than derek jeter...you tell me if hes good or not.

proof? i have never been overly impressed by his arm strength. so unless he tries a lot harder in front of scouts at a practice than he does in games, i find it unlikely he popped even one throw at 92.

perfect game usa...as a soph (2006) he threw 82mph. rated 8.5 out of 10. (9 -- Potential top 10 round pick, Top DI prospect... 8 -- Potential mid round pick, definite DI prospect )
