ICYMI - Elliott: Will top Canuck Bremner get chance to pitch on Bremner Blvd?

“What are the odds of finding the top-rated draft-eligible Canuck less than 15 weeks before the annual selection of high schoolers and collegians?

Over the years, we have found a few, yet we never have we found anything like this:

Santa Barbara Gauchos RHP Tyler Bremner.

Tyler was born in San Diego. His parents are Jason Bremner, of Mississauga, and Jennifer, of Queensville, Ont., north of Newmarket. They now call southern California home.

Tyler has a Canadian passport.

And he’s really good ... no, we mean really, really good.”

Elliott: Hicks, Pinkney, Hartman, Poturnak, Rienguette enjoying Draft League -- Update

“Well, if there was any doubt, the West Virginia Black Bears are Canada’s team in the MLB Draft league.

Especially since the Junior National Team vacated the league after playing a five-game partial schedule, of course.

The Black Bears have the most Canucks of any of the six teams with Connor Hicks of the Southeastern Fire, University of British Columbia Thunderbirds’ Jonny McGill and Scott Rienguette from Kansas State Wildcats.”

Elliott: Dawgs Tucker climbed from Mount Pearl to Seaman Stadium mound

“The joint was jumping.

Speakers at Seaman Stadium were blasting “Heave Away” by The Fables, the Celtic rock band from St. John’s, Newfoundland, as reliever Chase Tucker took his warm-up tosses.

The Fort McMurray Giants had a man on third as Tucker (Mount Pearl, Nfld.), replaced Josh Mills and made his first pitch.

Tucker heaved it all the way to the backstop with the runner scoring easily from third.

Lord liftin’ as a Newfoundlander might say.”

Betts: Davalan helps driving Razorbacks' bus ... all the way to Omaha

“The good folks at MLB Pipeline website have written Tennessee Volunteers left-hander Liam Doyle’s fastball “has been the most untouchable heater in college baseball this year.”

Apparently no one told Arkansas Razorbacks outfielder Charles Davalan.

Davalan (St-Bruno-De-Montarville, Que.) knew he would see that fastball when he headed to the plate after a leadoff walk in the top of the third in Game 2 of the Razorbacks Super Regional against the Volunteers on Sunday.”

“A hometown listing of Sudbury Ont. will garner some attention on the back of the Gavin Roy baseball card.

These days, however, it’s the impressive numbers that are being posted by the local product that are causing watchers both north and south of the border to take notice.

Making his debut as an NCAA Division I junior with the Washington State Cougars, after spending two years with the Cloud County Community College Thunderbirds in Kansas, the 21-year-old slick-fielding middle infielder was expecting a stretch of acclimatization as he cleared another barrier.”
