What To Watch Tonight...

If you have ESPN-U, consider yourself lucky (I don't, unfortunately).

Thursday night at 8:00 p.m. "U" is showing a Summer League Baseball matchup between the Battle Creek Bombers and host Rochester. While this game itself might not sound entirely intriguing, I ask that you look out for one player who I believe will make major waves in MLB in the years to come.

David Sappelt, left fielder for the Coastal Carolina University Chanticleers,
leads Battle Creek with a .329 batting average this season in 45 games. He also has 13 doubles and 10 stolen bases for the Bombers. Essentially, Sappelt is a 5-tool player and those are not easy to come by.

While this Chanticleer might not hear his name called in the first five rounds or so come draft day next season, I have no doubt in my mind that he has all the ability in the world to become a superstar within the game's highest level.

Treat yourself to his quality of play this evening. You won't be disappointed.
