Offspring of 2015 (Split from Constant Gardener)

[Edgy MD]

Name this Met offspring and budding soccer star.

[Edgy MD]

Nobody?

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Paulette LoDuca? What's this doing in a Seaver thread?

[Edgy MD]

I'm sorry. I followed a tangent. Pulled on a loose thread.

He said offspring, not girlfriend.

[Edgy MD]

I didn't want to say it. I thought it, but didn't want to say it.

No, not LoDuca.

None other than the legendary Dakota Wendell.

[Guest themetfairy]

That's one of my favorite pictures ever.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Dakota? I'm guessing the family already had a Bowtech, Wolfen, and Apex-Predator?

Also, I'm guessing that the kids didn't look forward so much to the Wendells' turn in the halftime-refreshments rotation.

[Edgy MD]

One of his teammates had a little girl named Dakota also. It was a happening name back in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer era.

You get your Dakotas and Cheyennes, but nobody ever names their daughters "Cowlitz" or "Blackfoot."

[Benjamin Grimm]

Or Schenectady or Parsipanny.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

I knew a Sioux in high school, although she may have just been a Sue who was going through a teen look-at-me thing.

Six year ML vet and 1998 NYM John Hudek's kid has signed a letter of intent to pitch at Bossier Comm College in Louisiana next season.
So what's so unusual about that you might ask? ... Well, it's his daughter Sarah.


NY Post: The 5-foot-10 Hudek throws her fastball around 82 mph and her soon-to-be college coach insists this is not being done as a publicity stunt for the college.
�That�s as good, or better, than most boys around here �� Aaron Voracheck told the paper of Sarah�s heater. �This is not a gimmick and I could care less about media attention. I�m signing her to help us win ballgames.�
�I grew up around pro baseball and I�ve had the opportunity to pick the brain, not only of my dad, but of other major leaguers he is friends with,� Sarah told the Shreveport Times. �I have a fastball, changeup, curve, and I�m working on a cutter.�
According to the paper, Hudek impressed at the 17 and Under World Wood Bat Championships � striking out 14 compared to two walks.
�I saw Sarah pitch as a sophomore and then again last season. She can really pitch,� Vorachek said. �I think other schools were afraid to take a chance on her. But you�re taking a chance with every kid you sign.�
Hudek is used to playing with the opposite sex and hopes the experience is the same as it�s been since Little League.
�They have been the greatest teammates,� Hudek said of her teammates at George Ranch High School.
�I hope my new teammates see me for what I can do to help the team, even though I�ll probably stick out like a sore thumb.�

An 82-mph heater. That's faster than Johan was last clocked at. A lefty, too, assuming that's her second from the left.
