Mike Murray Signs Free Agent Deal with San Francisco Giants
Wake Forest senior catcher Mike Murray was signed to a free agent contact by the San Francisco Giants, it was recently announced.
Murray becomes the first Wake Forest player to sign a free agent contract with a Major League Baseball team following the 2010 season and joins three other current or future Deacs that were drafted in the 2010 MLB Draft. Junior outfielder Steven Brooks was selected in the 17th round by the Chicago Cubs, while incoming freshmen Kevin Jordan was taken in the 19th round by the New York Yankees and James Harris was drafted in the 50th round by the Minnesota Twins.
Murray, who hails from Westfield, N.J., finished the 2010 season third on the team with a .345 batting average in 54 games played, including 52 starts. The senior catcher also hit six homers and drove in a team-best 53 runs. Murray led the Demon Deacons with 23 multi-hit games and 18 multi-RBI games in 2010. Defensively, he committed just three errors behind the plate for a .988 fielding percentage.
Over his four-year career at Wake Forest, Murray played in 194 games, including 164 starts, and posted a .299 batting average with 20 homers and 142 RBIs. Murray also had 35 doubles over his collegiate career and finished with 198 hits.
Ernst Signs Free Agent Contract with Cincinnati Reds
Wake Forest redshirt senior relief pitcher Joel Ernst has signed a free agent contract with the Cincinnati Reds, it was recently announced.
Ernst, a native of Cincinnati suburb Loveland, Ohio, becomes the second Demon Deacon senior to sign a free agent deal with a MLB team. Earlier this summer, catcher Mike Murray signed with the San Francisco Giants.
Ernst was the most reliable pitcher out of the Demon Deacon bullpen in 2010, appearing in 27 games and finishing the season with a 2-1 record, two saves and a team-best 3.73 ERA. Ernst, who finished tied for fifth in the Atlantic Coast Conference in appearances, had a string of nine consecutive appearances without allowing a run during his senior campaign.
Over his four seasons at Wake Forest, Ernst pitched in 70 games, including eight starts, and had a 5-4 record with two saves and an 8.18 ERA.

What should I bring to my baseball camp or showcase camp?
Many times the camp itself will have a recommended list of items to bring to camp, but here are a few things to help you. All position players should bring a bat and glove. Look like a baseball player by wearing a hat, jersey, belt, baseball socks, etc. You need to look the part. If you are a catcher, have your own gear. Hitters, bring your bat and helmet just in case. Don't expect to use the college's equipment and you must be ready to go! Borrow something from a teammate or coach if you do not have one.
Bring a snack just in case, you never know how long you will have to wait to train, get seen, etc.
