Mariners, Eagles play home double-headers Saturday
Every season the B.C. Premier Baseball League has a headliner. There have been some good ones in a BCPBL alumni list that includes current or former MLB players Michael Saunders and Rich Harden from the Victoria Mariners, Nick Pivetta from the Victoria Eagles, James Paxton, Tyler O’Neill, Ryan Dempster, Jeff Francis, Brett Lawrie, Adam Loewen, Justin Morneau and Hall of Famer Larry Walker.
This season’s BCPBL headliner is Sam Shaw of the Eagles, expected to go in the 2023 MLB draft, and a star for Canada last year with Usselman and Cadieux-Lanoue in the 2022 U-18 World Cup. Former Mariners player Shaw is switching to the Eagles this season.To have Chewpoy say that shows just how legitimate Shaw is as a prospect.
Shaw, in Grade 12 at Lambrick Park Secondary, also hit .428 at the 2022 Wood Bat Association world championship last fall. Jeremy Pike of BVM Sports ranks Shaw as the No. 3 Canadian high-school-age player for 2023, behind top-ranked Naylor and No. 2 Cadieux-Lanoue, with Hamilton at No. 10. .
