Why are all these EBAL kids getting so much love?
Don’t the major league scouts know that there are other teams in the area who have kids who try hard?

Hello all. What’s the story on Joe Lewis? Is he likely to sign with the Giants? Does he have a college comittment?
June 11th, 2009 at 11:20 am
It’s rare for anyone that low in the draft to sign, so I doubt he will.
I’m not sure what his college plans are…
