This ranking has Anderson lower than anyone else and Hutchinson higher. Would love to keep at least 5 of 7 Top-500 players

Getting Bacon would be HUGE.

Todd, does this list change any of your opinions on who will or won't make it?

[Todd4State]

No. I feel the same about our guys as of now. We'll find out next week where the chips lie.

Getting Bacon would be HUGE.

I think that to myself every day when I get up in the morning.

I thought Hutchinson was a big 1b?

Is he projected as a SP?

[AlSwearengen]

I thought there were three juco pitchers that were really highly rated, with a couple probably being a pipe dream. Maybe I am mixed up.

Huge kid with power, but the reports say he is Cole Gordon 2.0 with a bat, his Draft Stock is based on pitching

He's probably going to be a pitcher but I think we will look at him at first base too.

Well, there are three JUCO players that I think could be a risk but two of them are pitchers- McMahan and Bacon. It sounds like our odds of getting Bacon are getting better.

The third guy is Rey Riviera and he is the biggest risk of the three. He's a first baseman/OF guy.

The other guys are Mason, Voss, and Liebelt ... all Strikeout guys and Voss is LH. Mason appears to be injured, Voss had a big year and Liebelt was good too... these guys are not coming from glamour programs like Chipola or St John River or LSU Eunice

[Todd4State]

Liebelt kind of reminds me of Justin Pigott.
