Five Oregon Ducks were selected in the MLB Draft over the weekend and the first of the five has made the decision to begin their professional career, leaving College and the University of Oregon behind. The success of the Oregon Ducks Closer Stephen Nogosek has been well documented this season. He was named to numerous watch lists as the season went on and now he is a member of the Boston Red Sox Organization.
Nogosek will begin his career at Single A for the Lowell Spinners, and while his name is not yet listed on their roster, the tweet he sent out earlier today, showing a Red Sox hat and glove, showed that his talented young man is ready to move on.
