Made the bullpen coming out of spring training, got hit in the head by a Mike Cameron line drive in April...resulting in a concussion, some minor internal bleeding and three small skull fractures..
His stats from last season in AA: 148 IP 2.49 ERA 112 SO 1.13 WHIP 2.03 GO/FO
funny shit, i just got home.. turn on the game, giants up 4-3, burriss up to bat right handed for the first time.. suddenly its 5-3 then torres comes up, 6-3.
that was my point...........low level fringe prospect...........who is only somewhat known by the local fans because he got hit in the head by a line drive.......
oh ya and BTW i am totally expecting 2 of my former players to get drafted very high and another one late in the june draft.........i just hope it isnt the giants......it will kill me to be rooting for a giants organization if they get picked up by the giants

Bradin Hagens---Merced JC...drafted last year in round 35 or so....declined to sign....is up to around 93 with sink now, has touched 95....opened the JC season as the #2 ranked prospect in JC ball in california...........(projected 3-7 rounds)
tom mendonca---fresno state......college WS MVP.....team usa.......ect......(projected 1st round pick)
anthony jakosa---merced jc........1.85 pop time excellent defensive catcher.....bat needs to catch up.........6'2 catcher with good movement......power potential down the road........(possible late rounds 40+)

Quickly looked at Hagens stats, seems like he's got some projectability and would be worth a look in the 7th-10th round range...How are his secondary pitches?
If Mendonca can maintain his power stroke in the minors while making more constant contact (needs to cut down on K's), he will be special as his defense is above average...BA has him as #86 overall in their top 100. After the first round, the Giants pick at 55, 86 hopefully he makes it to us in one of those rounds...
