Hey Toni... Any future stories on tracking former Shore Conference athletes as they moved into college and possibly the majors.

Are they any former Shore Conference players currently in the Big Show. Whatever happen to players such as JM Gold or the Frazier brothers.

It seems as though the four former Shore Conference players up at Rutgers are doing really well... Gaynor, Kevin Lillis, Todd Frazier and Steve Healing.

Just curious

There's former Shore Conference players sprinkled liberally round college baseball..Todd Frazier hit a slam today. The pro career of J.M. Gold (arm problems) never clicked and I heard he plans to go into business with former Jackson slugger and big league minor leager Marc Fink..etc . etc.

We'll try and get to some stories..David DeJesus (Manalapan) is the starting cf for Kansas City..

Each Thursday I have a segment of locals in colleges in several sports....(baseball, softball, lax)...

Thank you for asking.....hopes this helps a little...

Frazier is having a monster year up at Rutgers. I checked the Rutgers website this afternoon, said Todd hit his second grandslam in as many days. Pretty impressive stats, hitting around .400 and leads the entire Big East Conference in the homerun department with 12. Pretty much leads the team in almost every offensive category. I'm sure the MLB scouts will be drooling all over him come June and the amature draft

Re Todd: Yes, we'll be chatting with him on draft day I'm positive.
MLB scouts Joe Adelizzi talked to last summer at the Blue Claws games love him.

Todd will set the RU home run record this year of 34 by passing brother Jeff..but the Big East record of Mo Vaughn (over 50 for S Hall) seems out of reach..I think.

This today from the RU web site..


.Frazier’s grand slam marked his 32nd career home run, tying him for second place with Pete Zoccolillo (1996-99) on the Rutgers all-time list. He is just two home runs shy of tying his brother Jeff (2002-04), who holds the school career home run record. The junior’s 12th home run of the season also tied him with Zoccolillo’s total in 1998 and 1999 and Angel Echevarria’s total in 1991 for second on the Rutgers single-season list.
