Tyler who?
Tyler Herr. No relation to Tom, as far as I know. Had a good year in Elizabethton last year. On the other hand, he turned 22 in October, so he should have had a good year in a rookie league. Was drafted in the 44th round in 2009, so obviously was not a hot prospect, but maybe he can beat the odds.
