WVU baseball is 18-26 and will quite likely lose more games this season than ever before. Jedd Gyorko, a junior from Morgantown’s University High, is going to be drafted and quite likely skip his senior season. Why not? It’s too much to pass up and too little to come back to.

It’s been a different season for Gyorko. Not only had the Mountaineers had been fairly successful his first two years, but his batting average is down to .359. Then again, his power numbers are up and he’s still driving in and scoring runs and racking up total bases. In his second year at shortstop — and he probably won’t be there in professional baseball — he’s cut his errors and improved his fielding percentage in what’s going to end up as more chances.

In all, just a weird and unfortunate ending for one of the school’s best ever.
