Congrats to Jared Mang of Los Alamos - the 2013-2014 New Mexico Gatorade Baseball Player of the year!

The 5-foot-10, 190-pound junior shortstop, second baseman and right-handed pitcher batted .605 with two home runs, 44 RBI and 35 runs scored, leading the Hilltoppers (22-7) to the Class 4A quarterfinals this past season. The 2013 District 2-4A Player of the Year, Mang swiped 21 bases and slugged .926. He also posted an 8-2 record on the mound with a 1.01 ERA and 42 strikeouts in 55.2 innings pitched.

Mang has maintained a 3.84 GPA in the classroom. A member of the National Honor Society, he has volunteered locally on behalf of the Natural Helpers peer leadership group.

I'm hearing top 5 rounds and as early as the 2nd

Silver catcher Shakur Martinez would catch first game in doubleheader and pitch the next game he performed well in both games all season and hit the ball well. to be a second all-state catcher while kids who only performed well in a few games and were selected all-state first team was not only wrong but also an insult.

What time of summer baseball coverage would you like to see on the front page? Thanks very much!

Probably the largest HS tournament in New Mexico. Games are Thursday through Sunday, with most of the APS teams participating plus PV, Farmington, Cleveland, Clovis, Las Cruces, Valencia, Academy and others. 24 teams participating. Brackets and info at nmgames.swcp.com.

ABA 17s wins the 18U division...48 teams NM, CO, CA, NV, AZ. Played 3 Saturday and 3 Sunday to win it.

ABA 16s and ABA 15s lose in the quarter finals of the 16U division (36 teams). Both teams lost one run games.

Good way to start the Summer!

Hearing that Steve Nunez is now the new head baseball coach for Roswell High School.

Best Baseball Books

and what are you reading today?

As summer ball starts, here are recommendations from the American Sports Medicine Institute:



Watch and respond to signs of fatigue (such as decreased ball velocity, decreased accuracy, upright trunk during pitching, dropped elbow during pitching, or increased time between pitches). If a youth pitcher complains of fatigue or looks fatigued, let him rest from pitching and other throwing.No overhead throwing of any kind for at least 2-3 months per year (4 months is preferred). No competitive baseball pitching for at least 4 months per year.Do not pitch more than 100 innings in games in any calendar year.Follow limits for pitch counts and days rest.Avoid pitching on multiple teams with overlapping seasons.Learn good throwing mechanics as soon as possible. The first steps should be to learn, in order: 1) basic throwing, 2) fastball pitching, 3) change-up pitching.Avoid using radar guns.A pitcher should not also be a catcher for his team. The pitcher-catcher combination results in many throws and may increase the risk of injury.If a pitcher complains of pain in his elbow or shoulder, discontinue pitching until evaluated by a sports medicine physician. Inspire youth pitchers to have fun playing baseball and other sports. Participation and enjoyment of various physical activities will increase the youth's athleticism and interest in sports.
