Accolades-

2009 Crew Review-

TJ started slowly like many of the Canton Crew members who came from Roy Hobbs to Akron AA. After a two week adjustment period TJ punished AA pitchers, finishing in the league top 10 in Doubles, Triples, Slugging percentage, RBIs and average.

TJ is quickly proving himself to be one of the more dangerous hitters in Akron AA and one of the most prolific hitters in Canton Crew history.

2008 Crew Review-

TJ was another offseason addition made to add some punch in the middle of the Crew lineup. TJ supplied that and more working his way to the cleanup spot and remaining there most of the season.

At the plate TJ has a quick swing with good power to all fields, while not hitting any homeruns in 2008, TJ has the ability to drive the ball hard at any time. Even after tailing off toward the end of 08, TJ still posted a nice .333 batting average, finishing in the top 3 in most offensive categories.

In the field TJ played mostly third and short, showing good movement to both sides and an extremely strong throwing arm. TJ was also behind the plate sparingly and showed a great throwing arm and good game calling abilities.
