Gamecocks in the Majors/Minors

cack · 05-21-2009, 07:12 AM

it's hard to keep up with every single player from Carolina ... so if you know of a former Carolina player in the Majors or Minors ... post them here

i know ESPN has a thing for the NFL that you can search by what college they went to and it'll show you a list ... but doesn't look like they have it for baseball ... so lets make our own

Brian Roberts - Baltimore Orioles
Landon Powell - Oakland A's

Brian Roberts still play for the Orioles?

Justin Smoak is in Texas's Double-A team

Steve Pearce is with Pittsburgh's Triple-A affiliate in Indianapolis.

Former Gamecock Chisenhall is doing well somewhere...does he count?

Just type in anyone's last name in the index at the top and it will give you their stats for the year.

Chisenhall is tearing it up! His numbers are better than Smoaks. Think about what we could have done if we had him last year in the outfield with all of the offensive power we had.

Adam Everett-Detroit Tigers
Kip Bouknight-Somerset Patriots (Atlantic League)

DEECOCK · 05-21-2009, 08:55 AM

Jon Coutlangus is still pitching somewhere.

PierceCock · 05-21-2009, 09:29 AM

Kevin Mellilo is now with Toronto after a few years with powell in oakland.
Billy Buckner is still with Arizona if I am not mistaken.
Mookie Wilson was coaching the brooklyn cyclones a few years ago, not sure if he is still doing any baseball related these days.

Hope that helps

Almost forgot Travis Jones with Atlanta baby! woo hoo, they are fairly high on him. Actually one of the only real infield prospects the braves have these days.

DEECOCK · 05-21-2009, 10:20 AM

Travis was moved form Myrtle Beach to Miss.

Yes, he is in Triple A..the Reno Aces...I saw him play last week in nashville. Also on his team is former Gamecock pitcher Billy Buckner. So it was cool to see 2 former gamecocks on the same Triple A team...

usc1 · 05-21-2009, 10:26 AM

Brandon Todd is dominating:

Didnt Cout get called up for a game or to for the Reds. Someone did...I think it was him. We have 3 college position players that didnt really pitch in college and now pitching in the majors. McBeth, Coutlangus, and Buckner (pitch a little in college).

Yeah Cout played a good amount with the REds last year...he got traded though..because the Triple A team he is on is an affiliate of the Diamondbacks..

DEECOCK · 05-21-2009, 10:46 AM

Trent Kline is also playing which is surprising.

TheGamecock · 05-22-2009, 03:44 PM

Ian Paxton: Not sure if this name has been mentioned but I went to a double A game last night here in Jacksonville and Paxton was playing catcher for the Montgomery Biscuits. Not sure there affiliation but I was suprised to see him at the double A level. His stats weren't that great. He had a .161 avg w/ 3 HRS.

Montgomery Biscuits? Seriously?
