Kline will return to Ole Miss

Ole Miss pitcher Will Kline has informed Major League Baseball teams he has no interest in playing professionally next season.

The redshirt sophomore, who is eligible for Tuesday’s draft because he is three years removed from high school, said he has sent a letter to professional teams informing them he will return to the Rebels for his junior season.

The decision means Ole Miss should have its top pitcher back in 2007. Kline, who is 5-2 with a 3.02 earned run average, will start the first game of the NCAA Super Regional against Miami this weekend.

“I felt like this was the best thing for me,” Kline said. “I didn’t want to
get out into pro ball and feel like I had any doubt in my mind that I wanted to be back here. Why leave somewhere that I love?”

See Tuesday's Clarion-Ledger, online and in print, for a look at Mississippians — from high school and college — who might be taken in Tuesday's MLB draft.

Hotty Toddy!!!!! Pitching should not be a problem next season with Kline, Lynn, Bukvich and Satterwhite returning for certain. C Rod may be back as well. G. White is probably gone as he will likely go in the first 10 rounds of the draft.
