The Walters State baseball program has had several players
over the last decade sign professional contracts after being drafted in the
Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft. They added two more to the list this summer.

Cody Geyer was selected in the 14th round (424th overall) this June by the
Arizona Diamondbacks after a standout freshman campaign. Geyer hit .350 with eight home runs, 15 doubles and 47 RBIs at the plate, and he was 1-1 with a 2.76 earned run average on the mound. Cody signed with the Diamondbacks earlier this summer and has been in Phoenix preparing for fall league play.

Geyer joins Chris Costantino, who signed with the St. Louis Cardinals on
Tuesday, as professional signees from the 2011 Senators club.
