Comments on: A quick look at Josh Wilson http://futureredbirds.com/2008/07/07/a-quick-look-at-josh-wilson/ Baseball's Future in the Gateway City Wed, 11 Mar 2009 20:06:47 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=MU hourly 1 By: Beau http://futureredbirds.com/2008/07/07/a-quick-look-at-josh-wilson/#comment-19706 Beau Wed, 09 Jul 2008 01:53:54 +0000 http://futureredbirds.wordpress.com/?p=1581#comment-19706 In 2005, Wilson was the best among the high school pitchers in rotation at Johnson City (suprassing Herron, Garceau, and Leach). Wilson was the most advanced in the 05 draft class and no arm problems after signing. In 2006, the Cards tried to introduce their most advanced apprentice to the Midwest League. It was after 10 IP that Josh's arm problems ensued. After 2 subsequent seaons lost to injury, its great that Wilson is able to play again. He had a strong game recently. He can use 2008 to rebuild arm strength. We wish him all the best, in future.

I do remember while working for the Q-C Times during that time that the Twins sent quite a few big names to the River Bandits.

I am quite interested in the progress of Josh Wilson. Time is still on his side. Hopefully the shoulder strengthens over the next year and he is able to rely on more than control (which seems to be a low A trick...). Anywho - thanks again. Appreciate the post.

Prior to that they were with Houston fro 1993 through 1998 (i think). Then from the late 70's, I don't know the exact years, they were an Angels farm club before switching to the Cubs for a few years in the early to mid 80's then switching back to the Angels before finally inking a deal with the 'Stros.

I appreciate the news from the Q-C since I have followed baseball up there since the 80's. Of course it was mainly the California Angels and Astros farm club before... Speaking of happenings in Iowa, how is CR and surroundings areas recovering from the great flood of 08? Thanks Erik.
