OL.com story about Reza Aleaziz
OregonLive has a story about future UO pitcher Reza Aleaziz. I know TK1 will be interested.

Re: OL.com story about Reza Aleaziz
It's awesome to see him doing well. It's still kinda surreal seeing him move closer and closer to the big stage. It'll be interested to see where he gets drafted too. Some teams have been wanting him in this year's draft.

I noticed that Reza is enrolled at OSU. What happened, thought he was coming here?

Re: OL.com story about Reza Aleaziz
His advisor said OSU would be more ideal for him, because Oregon/Horton likes to pitch cali guys. And he would likely see the field more/quicker at OSU than at UO. So Reza decommitted and made the switch.uosportsguy01 wrote:I noticed that Reza is enrolled at OSU. What happened, thought he was coming here?
I was pretty pissed at him, and honestly I think that's a load of crap. He's pretty good, he would see time in Oregon's bullpen over the next couple years.

someone actually said that, and the kid believed him? is this kid developmentally disabled?UOducksTK1 wrote:His advisor said OSU would be more ideal for him, because Oregon/Horton likes to pitch cali guys.

last i checked, both oregon and oregon state are returning all three weekend starters from this past season, but both will have bullpen openings and both will have a few starting rotation spots open after 2014. if he outpitches an established arm, both horton and casey have shown they have no problem pitching freshmen. if that's actually what happened, that kid fell for a rather stupid outright fabrication.

Re: OL.com story about Reza Aleaziz
That's what I told him, but apparently his advisor "knows about the MLB" and said his best shot is at OSU. Believe me, our friendship isn't the same anymore. Not even for the fact he went to OSU, but his reasoning for switching.oregontrack wrote:someone actually said that, and the kid believed him? is this kid developmentally disabled?UOducksTK1 wrote:His advisor said OSU would be more ideal for him, because Oregon/Horton likes to pitch cali guys.

Horton was very upset and asked if he was scared to play at UO.

Re: OL.com story about Reza Aleaziz
yeah, that's nuts. casey is an incredible coach and is no stranger to putting kids into minor/major league organizations, but horton is actually the one considered the pitching guru.

Re: OL.com story about Reza Aleaziz
No doubt a tough decision for him. I wish him luck, hope he kills it, except of course when playing us!
