Just got back from the Astro's tryout. Hit 89mph on the gun with the FB and as low as 71 with off speed, and they were very impressed. They told me to expect a phone call very soon, dream might come true who knows. Just keeping everyone updated!

I don't know what I'd rather risk... a fastball coming back at me off a Louisville Slugger or a tinted out cadillac doing 55 at 3am. Good luck man.

Thank you everyone! No juice, I promise. Well I've only experienced once of those 4985 and well lets just say my pants were a bit damp afterwards.

Guys here who know me know this...

I kind of know a guy who knows a thing or two about the academy and at this point NOTHING is scheduled tentatively or otherwise. Things may change and they will be ready to whip it together if authorized.

My source is pretty reliable and about as close as you can get.

Got the call from the scout today, he told me he spoke with my college coach and wants me to have some collegiate experience under my belt. He also said it would be good to learn some more and increase my size. I should be expecting a contract offer if I tear it up next year. Now the real work comes. Will definetly keep all of you updated!

Academy

In regards to all the recent posts about the academy...I encourage anyone to email/call their recruitment office, and I bet you will hear the same thing of an academy in Oct/Nov with rumors pushing towards November.

Well, I guess we will see. IF the academy is scheduled for November we all should have letters by mid september.

Nickelbloom - quick question for you .. where do you get your info from and why are you so sure that what you think you know is right ?

I got a letter 2 weeks before my academy started... so dont get people thinking that they will have a letter of acceptance 1.5 mos before it starts... sometimes things move quick and you dont have much time at all.. My whole processing only lasted 3 weeks... from agility test, backround investigation, psych and polygraph and final medical to the night i took my 1st step into the academy as a recruit... I actually recieved a phone call asking if i would accept a position into the academy and then a letter followed a few days later.

I know what im talking about b/c i lived it .. I hope this helps anyone out there trying to get in.. just stay in shape and be prepared for things to happen at anytime..
