CHICO, Calif. - Pleasant Valley High School Grad BJ Vela was drafted by the Boston Red Sox. I ve been wanting to do this for a long time, he said. I ve had it written on my fridge since I was eight years old. It s been on my wall wherever I go in college. So it s a dream come true.
Vela has played baseball for as long as he can remember, from the NorCal Mavericks as a child to the PV High School team.
