The CBB continues our countdown for the 2010 College Baseball season by checking in on the Top 100 Players in the country. We will be providing one player per day until we reach number 1.
We continue the list today with number 98 in our countdown with Tulane sophomore catcher Jeremy Schaffer. He is from Bellaire Texas where he attended Bellaire High School. He was a four year letter winner in high school where he hit .404 with eight homers and 40 RBI in his senior campaign.
He came right into the Tulane program and became an instant contributor where he played in 57 games making starts in all of them. He finished the season with a .311 average while hitting 14 homers and 56 RBI. He also only struck out 35 times in his 212 plate appearances which is impressive for a freshman. He was also solid defensively as he threw out 28.1 percent of base runners last season. Louisville Slugger named him a Freshman All-American for his strong season.
This summer he saw some limited action with the USA Collegiate National Team where he played in five games (one start) while hitting .222 with two RBI in nine plate appearances.
