Indiana junior pitcher Scott Effross has been selected to the 2014 Friendly’s Cape League All-Star Game on Sunday, July 27 in Doran Park in Bourne, Mass. The CCBL All-Star game will be televised by Fox College Sports and broadcast on WCAI National Public Radio at 6 p.m. ET.

 

Effross, who is playing summer ball with the Cape Cod League’s Wareham Gatemen, was named a reserve for the West All-Stars and is one of just two Big Ten representatives chosen to play in the game.

 

The Twinsburg, Ohio, native has recorded a team-high three saves for the Gatemen, striking out 22 batters and boasting a 3.20 ERA.

 

Effross, a Freshman All-American in 2013, is one of 16 Hoosiers playing summer ball.

A little update here on Kyle.

http://scoop.hoosiershq.com/2014/09/kyle-hart-working-way-back-from-tommy-john-surgery-iubase/

Kyle Hart spent the summer on the sidelines and he’s prepared to do the same over the fall.

It’s a long road back from Tommy John surgery, but Hart is nearing the midway point of the process. After undergoing the procedure in the spring to repair a torn ulnar collateral ligament, Hart is still two months shy of throwing a bullpen session.

 

But the process is moving along as he hoped, with Hart still expecting to be ready to participate in time for the 2015 spring season.

 

“From what I’ve been told, by the time the season rolls around, I should be pretty much available,” Hart said. “Usually these things can take anywhere from 10-12 months, so I still have a long way to go, but the slow part is over. The summer rehab and no throwing — that part is over. I’m into the throwing stage of it and being in class, being in practice, being over (at Bart Kaufman Field) every day is kind of making it go a little faster.”

 

Before going down with the left elbow injury, Hart appeared in nine games, including six starts, compiling a 3-1 record and a 2.29 ERA. He held opponents to a .160 average, while yielding 19 hits over 35 1/3 innings.

Anyone here anything on Halstead lately?

[brtjohns 711]

^ tore his acl in early march.  I'm not sure what the typical recovery time for that injury is, and haven't heard anything on him lately.

 

with kyle hart likely out of the rotation picture this year, I wonder if we'll convert either or both of effross or harrison to starters.  even with denato's departure, pitching will again be a strength and have depth.

 

anybody been to a scrimmage?  also very curious on who has a leg up in the catcher, first base and shortstop battles.

hart not in rotation I thought he was back from tommy john surgery did I miss something

Schedule out yesterday. We open the season on Feb.13th with a 3 game series @ Stanford. Revenge time!

http://www.iuhoosiers.com/sports/m-basebl/sched/ind-m-basebl-sched.html

[brtjohns 711]

three really tough series early in the season away at stanford, away at college of charleston, home with cal state fullerton.  we'll see how good this team is right off the bat.  taking two in the opening stanford series would be a great feat.  our commentator murray thinks they'll be the pac12 favorites even after losing their 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 6th hitters in the lineups that eliminated us.  the leadoff shortstop doucher that hit the walkoff returns.

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Exhibition vs Xavier coming up on Thursday @ 6pm ET. Anyone going? 

[BlueDevil 8,687]

Went last year had a blast watched Schwarber go yard on the first pitch he saw

[brtjohns 711]

looking at the roster in the iu-xavier game notes, rhp luke stephenson has transferred here from vanderbilt.  I don't know if he'll be able play right away.  didn't immediately impress at vandy like scouts thought he would but he has big potential.  he was rated the #1 2012 prospect in indiana by pbr.  hopefully bunn can help him realize his potential and he turns into a scott donley-like addition.

 

also ccg, we received a commitment from cali 2015 c/1b ryan fineman, former notre dame verbal.  a july collegebaseballcentral.com article said he's ranked #235.  to put that in perspective, ockimey was ranked 203 and sowers 387.  he played for the usa u17 national team.  I'd drop his rank a couple hundred spots since he stated in his commitment tweet, "university of indiana".  people gotta stop doing that.

 Cangelosi doin' some work tonight.

@HoosierBaseball: And there's a run for #IUBase. Cangelosi flies out to left field and Donley scores IU's first run. XU 5, #iubase 1

 

@HoosierBaseball: HOME RUN!!!!! Austin Cangelosi to left field! Xavier leads 6-2 in the bottom of the ninth.

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Rally hats! Bases loaded, 1 out, B9

@HoosierBaseball: Four balls, give the good guys another run!  Xavier 6, #iubase 3 | 9th | 1 out

[ccgeneral 38,084]

@HoosierBaseball: Sacrifice fly to center and #iubase is within 2! Xavier 6, Hoosiers 4 | B9th | 2 outs

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Sounds like some extra fun tonight.

@HoosierBaseball: We're headed to the bottom of the 10th with Xavier leading 6-4. #GoIU
