Burney's Baseball Rankings - April Showers

Burney's OC Prep Baseball Top 10 - Late April 2011
1          Birmingham Brother Rice; You can't stop freshman phenom Matt Ruppenthal, you can only hope to contain him
2          Lake Orion; Sophomore hurler Nick Deeg is a SUPERSTAR in the making
3 (tie)  MH Bishop Foley; Zoom Zoom, The Schalk Boyz, and Bret 'Mayday' Sunde are SO DANGEROUS on the diamond, Burney gets chills just thinking about them
3 (tie)  MH Lamphere; The most prolific front end of a batting order in the area, highlighted by leadoff genius Mitch Kozlwoski, ultra-steady Ryan Horvath and the GOLDEN BOY himself Greg 'G-Bomb' Fettes in the clean-up spot
4          Clarkston; Dustin Peck for president!!!
5          Troy Athens; Anthony Carillo is CRAZY GOOD!!!
6          WL Central; The experience factor with this group is overwhelming, will payoff come state tourney time
7 (tie)  RH Adams; Is there really any question that Adams will be in the thick of things come late next month?.......I don't think so
7 (tie)  Stoney Creek; Cougars are one of the best hitting teams in Metro Detroit….and you can take that 2 THE BANK!!!          
8          BH Andover – I'm going to start calling Gabe Berman, 'Gabe the Babe', cause this kid has a Ruth-like presence in the local prep baseball scene
9          Birmingham Seaholm – Brand new skipper Dan Drapal is doing one heck of a job getting the Maples off and running in 2012…..Derek Amboyen could wind up being Burney's MVP this year, he has Miggie-esque capability in the carry-a-team-on-his-back department.
10 (tie)        Birmingham Groves – There are some real hidden gems on this Falcons roster and I'm not just talking about Mike Mestdagh
10(tie) - AH Avondale; Don't test 'Jackets catcher Mitch Robinson on the base paths 'cause he'll gun you down like his name was Joe Mauer
