Mike Trout is the 1st or 2nd best player in the game and he's from Vineland. Rick Porcello went to Seton Hall Prep.
There's more I'm sure, I'm not the biggest baseball fan
Local kid playing for one of the local teams is pretty cool.
I was aware of Mike Trout and Todd Frazier (Toms River), can’t think of too many others. The south produces a lot more ball players (especially Florida) since they can play year round.
Yankees are pinning their hopes on this kid or they would have gone after the big free agent from Houston. You never can tell how these guys pan out. Don't forget Al Leiter from down the shore.

Who was the big free agent from Houston you’re referring to?
Al Leiter’s son actually played baseball with Volpe in high school. They were supposed to both go to Vanderbilt but Volpe decided to enter the draft after the Yankees told him they intended on picking him.
There have been other highly regarded prospects on the Yankees who never fulfilled their potential. Greg Bird and Clint Frazier come to mind. But every so often you get a Posada, Jeter, Cano, or Judge. Maybe Volpe is next on that list.

Oh. He was with the Twins last year. Seemed no one wanted anything to do with him with that leg thing
