Baseball Draft

Sorry, I know this isn't football or Arkansas related but my cousin, Skylar Hunter, The Citadels closer, was drafted by the Phillies. SoCons all-time saves leader and just a JR. Very proud of him and had to share.

Congrats to your cousin Deedster 84 we can both celebrate, My grandson Cameron Gann is flying out to Glendale Arizona this morning. Was drafted by the Diamondbacks in the 27th round. His mother is a former Ladyback Soccer player and one of the original soccer players on the first Ladyback soccer team. His dad also is a former Arkansas alum along with yours truly. Proud grandpa.

Absolute congrats!! He's one of a fairly select few that likely will have the opportunity to show his stuff in the "league". Best wishes to him.

BTW don't feel you have to apologize for posting the thread to begin with. Heck, as we've all seen there are FAR weirder things that have been set to paper on here.
