A look at former BAWS'rs & their careers in the game

Every so often I am at a game and run into a former BAWS participant. Sometimes he's a coach in that game, sometimes he's watching a high school game as a club team coach, player development coach, or recruiting consultant/advisor. Other times he's there scouting for a MLB club or college program.

I don't know ALL the former BAWS'rs who are working in the game but I started to jot down some names of those I do know of. Many if not all of these guys played college baseball and quite a few played pro ball (in bold).
