Anybody hearing Ace Reese to the portal and headed to LSU?
Yeah there's so smoke. Hopefully it's just fog left over from all the rain.
Ben Davis withdraws from the draft and is returning.
Huge bullpen piece.
I wonder if MSU in the game for Joey Volchko
This is the Paul Skenes, Chase Burns, or Eyason of this year.
LSU fans acting like Volchko is already a Raising Canes spokesman
He is not all that impressive on the 2025 Stanford stat sheet, but stat sheets do not pitch in games. What is it about him that makes him that coveted? Potential? Nasty stuff? Just curious because this is the first time I have heard his name. Maybe I am living under a rock too.Quote:

Shows there is risk and danger of a bubble in Portal Pitchers. There is even a Texas State kid in the cape with an 18 ERA and 438 batting average against. Compared to this kid, I need to offer my services in the portal, there are some bust, shot-out prospects offering to take their waste-of-space to a new college.
Even a 100 hitting SS from Purdue. This dude should be issuing a public apology to Purdue Coaches and Fans, not flaunting portal availability
Great stuff, Federalist. 100 mph says it all. Appreciate the knowledge and I agree with you about some guys in the portal. Some of these players are getting bad advice or have a seriously overinflated value of their abilities.Quote:

One of the most talented staffs we've had in a while.Quote:

Depending on the draft, this pitching staff has the potential to be downright filthy. Very, very talented staff. Keep working BOC and staff!
That is a big pickup.
Like others have said, this will be one of the more consequential drafts for us in recent memory. A lot of pieces that we need to make it campus.
Yep. Lose 2-3 pieces it?s ok depending of course. Lose 6-7 guys? Really hurts the rosterQuote:

I am just enjoying the Baseball Portal National Championship race.Quote:

I heard keenum ordered a banner that he calls the "Portal Governor's cup - We Own the Sip"Quote:
