Lamar Baseball Signs Six More to Close Recruiting Period

BEAUMONT – Lamar University baseball coach Jim Gilligan announced the addition of six more players that have signed national letters-of-intent to continue their education and play baseball for the Cardinals, bringing the total number of early signees to nine for the 2008-09 season.

A 6-3, 215-pound right-handed pitcher, Jamie Bagley was a relief pitcher at San Jacinto JC last season. He prepped at Huffman HS where he was named district MVP and a first-team all-district selection as a senior. He was drafted in the 25th round of the MLB Draft in 2006.

Chambers, a 6-2, 225-pound left-handed pitcher, is pitching at LSU-Eunice this season after hurling at San Jacinto last season. He prepped at Silsbee HS.

“Both Chambers and Bagley are weekend-type guys,†said Gilligan. “Bagley is a hard thrower and it’s nice to get Chambers, a local kid, to return to this area and play for us.â€
