Baseball Primer Newsblog — The Best News Links from the Baseball Newsstand Friday, August 26, 2011Rice Tight End signs with Blue Jays
I know these type of signings don’t normally get their own thread, but this particular signing seems very interesting. He doesn’t play baseball for Rice, only football, and he’s signed a professional contract with the Jays but will stay be allowed to play Rice football. I had no idea that was allowed by either the NCAA or MLB. Paul D(uda)

1. vortex of dissipation Posted: August 26, 2011 at 06:51 PM (#3909764)Jake Locker signed with the Angels in 2009, but still played two years of football after that for the University of Washington.
I thought it was not that uncommon to have guys playing football in NCAA while playing minor league ball during the summers.
There. I made an ass joke.
Current Buckeyes defensive back Devon Torrence played in the Astros system his fresh and soph seasons.
And there's the only way I could hate him even more - John Elway, New York Yankee.
I was the official scorer for another Pac-10 baseball team when Elway was at Stanford. In one game, I ruled a ball that Elway hit an error rather than a base hit. He sent the Stanford student manager over to me to try to talk me into changing it into a hit - the only time an opposing player did anything like that in the five seasons I kept the official scorebook...
I do find it strange that he seems to have been out of baseball at an organized level (except for the Canadian team) for a while.
