    Larson was not the NCAA home run leader in 1997. Lance Berkman of Rice hit 41. Berkman is the same age as Larson but he got to the Astros in 1999 and stayed in the big leagues until 2013. His career earnings were $124,005,000.

    Huge blow to this teams hopes for next year. 2019 was gonna be their next real shot anyhow. Hopefully Walker comes back throwing harder as often happens with tj surgery.

    CPM can stop with the leaving Hess in the pen now.
