Pote-ntial in Cincy

Baseball runs in Owen Pote’s genes.

His father, Lou, pitched 219 2/3 innings in the big leagues and played all over the world – Japan, Mexico, China, and even Canada with the independent Edmonton Cracker-Cats and Edmonton Capitals.

And now, he’s looking to move up the ranks in the Cincinnati Reds system.

1 Thru 9: Jayden Kane

Few athletes have had the kind of high-profile year that Jayden Kane has embarked upon.

The Fort McMurray native and AHP Academy product has taken advantage of every opportunity given to him as he’s been looking to find the right college to commit to.

1 Thru 9: Gabe Fink

He’s been lauded as one of the premiere prospects in Canada set to graduate from high school in 2027.

But Gabe Fink is taking it all in stride, working hard every day to refine his skills.

The AHP Academy product is the latest to be featured in our 1 Thru 9 series, looking at up-and-coming talent across the province.

7th Inning Stretch: Jack Jewell

Jack Jewell is looking to make up for some lost time this summer when he suits up with the new Energy City Cactus Rats.

The Sherwood Park native and AHP Academy alum redshirted this spring at Barton Community College, and is excited to be back on the field for the summer.

1 Thru 9: Seth Suer

After spending his young baseball career traveling around Edmonton, Seth Suer is happy going to a warmer climate when he goes to college.

The 18-year-old grew up in Morinville before beginning a whirlwind tour through the capital region.

He has committed to Phoenix College.

Sabrowski’s Reflections

Stepping onto the mound at Kauffman Stadium, home of the Kansas City Royals, left-hander Erik Sabrowski doesn’t remember much from the moment that made him a Major League Baseball player with the Cleveland Guardians.

The Absolute Human Performance alum spoke with Canadian Baseball Network’s Tyson Shushkewich to talk about the year that was and what’s to come in 2025.

Steady As He Goes

Miguel Tetreault couldn’t help but smile as he glanced around Legacy Dodge Field in Fort McMurray in Team Alberta’s first game of the 2024 Baseball Canada Cup.

The starting shortstop was living every Canadian baseball player’s dream of representing their province on home turf.

He’s elevated his game to perform at the Canadian Futures Showcase and is now in line to join Cloud County Community College.

Dom-inating Performance

It has been a whirlwind few months for Dominik Morgan.

The Sherwood Park native suited up for Baseball Canada’s Junior National Team and the Sylvan Lake Gulls, and will soon join the Canadian Futures Showcase and PBR West Coast Games.

The AHP Academy product is happy to keep taking those phone calls.

Standing on Guard

It was kind of fitting that Erik Sabrowski had to wait a little while longer than he had hoped to make his Major League Baseball debut.

After getting through two Tommy John surgeries and the global pandemic just to turn pro, the St. Albert product made the best of the opportunity.

On Sept. 4, 2024, Sabrowski came out of the bullpen for the Cleveland Guardians against the Kansas City Royals.

OPINION: Alberta’s Big MLB Draft Presence

The MLB Draft Class of 2024 was a big one for Alberta.

With five Albertans being named and a few others with connections to our province, it was the biggest contingent since 2011, despite being half the size.

Joe McFarland says this should be a sign of things to come.
