[Freak]

Five former Tennessee baseball players were listed on MLB Opening Day rosters as play got underway on Monday across the American and National Leagues. First baseman Todd Helton of the Colorado Rockies, pitcher R.A. Dickey of the Minnesota Twins, infielder Augie Ojeda of the Arizona Diamondbacks, pitcher Mike Lincoln of the Cincinnati Reds and outfielder Chase Headley of the San Diego Padres represent the Vol contingent in the big leagues.

I think Headley will end up being a pretty decent player. He could start in left this year.

Thye only thing that will hold Headley back is that ballpark that he plays in.

pitcher Mike Lincoln of the Cincinnati Reds

If he keeps pitching like he has so far this season, he might want to see if he has any eligibility left. A nice 34.71 ERA.
