Jimmy Van Ostrand

BY CLAYTON RICHER – FAN FUEL BLOGGER

When Canadians think about the most decorated boys of summer to don the maple leaf the likes of Joey Votto, Brett Lawrie, Larry Walker and Justin Morneau instantly garner the most attention. However, I would like to introduce you to British Columbia native and Washington Nationals farmhand Jimmy Van Ostrand.

Van Ostrand was drafted in 2003 in the 29th round by the Pittsburgh Pirates out of Allan Hancock College in Santa Maria, but elected not to sign continuing his collegiate career at California Polytechnic State University.
