He may be headed up to the bigs very soon... Will's sister Lacey is having her best year at University of Tulsa. She's 12-3 this year on the mound and hitting well over .300. She was on ESPN 3 on Saturday and beat Houston, 3-2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TXKFan2012 Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Middlebrooks is starting in about 30 minutes as the Red Sox take on Oakland. If he tears it up, Valentine may have no choice but to keep him at 3B all year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigdawg Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Former Liberty-Eylau Standout, Will Middlebrooks P/SS, made his MLB Debut Wed night vs the Oakland A's. Will went 2-3 with a 2B, BB, SB, and K. Today he hit his first MLB HR, a grand-slam vs the Orioles. He is the first Red Sox player to have an extra base hit in his first three games. He doubled vs the O's on Friday.

abe Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Make that at least 3. Drew Stubbs is starting in Center Field for the Reds. He also hit a homer on Sunday. Congrats to Will, a great kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justafannow Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 I saw Middlebrooks play a few times for ol' Squid at L-E and he was a pleasure to watch. Quite a jump from Leopard Stadium to hitting a grand slam in Fenway in just 5 yrs. I know his dad and Fowler must be tickled to death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His extra points used to go almost over the fence in the curve of the track at our old place, on a regular basis. Good pop on the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greinke Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 Will just hit a 3 run bomb Since then, he's hit a 2B to CF and a line drive off the LF foul pole for a 2-run dinger. Three hits tonight, with 5 RBI. Has had another bad throwing error, though, to 1B. Needs to correct that quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

68Hornet Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Ask him if he's willing to allow himself one error per game. Will's two errors are not the norm. He's an incredible fielder with the "best" infield arm in the Red Sox organization. I saw one of the errors and it was a really tough play where he charged and made a bad throw. He's not Brooks Robinson yet, but he's probably a better hitter than Brooks, who is a Hall of Famer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
