Although we are not huge fans of the UT Longhorns, my son and I still root for teams and players from this Great State. We were extremely fortunate to receive a couple autographs from a former Longhorn, who also happens to be one of the hottest pitchers right now.
Adrian Alaniz was a star for the University of Texas. He was drafted by the Nationals in the 8th round of the 2007 draft. Adrian is currently pitching for the Potomac Nationals. He should soon be promoted to AA, as he his currently 5-0, with a 2.57 era in 42 innings of work.
Adrian also answered a few questions for us as well.
