Parker an All-Star Too

June 5th, 2008 | Author: Chad Gramling

In addition to the three Fort Wayne Wizards representing Fort Wayne in the Midwest League All-Star Game, former Norwell standout and 2007 first round pick, Jarrod Parker, has been selected.

Jarrod Parker represents the highest of seven players drafted in 2007 that will play in the 2008 Midwest League All-Star game. Parker has been everything you would expect out of a #9 overall pick and more than you would hope for from a 19-year old playing in the Midwest League. He won four consecutive starts earlier in the year, has only walked as many as three batters once in nine games, and boasts a sub-3.00 ERA. He truly makes this team by being a star, but he also has the numbers to back up the selection [source: FutureBacks.com].
