MLB Draft

I would love for us to get Jacob Parker because he is a potential 20 hr guy in college, but I think he goes since his brother is for sure gone.

Since you guys follow the draft, I see we have 11 more draftable guys today, how many do you predict will be gone as I have no idea. I just know it's very hard to make a roster in the ML. Wish them luck today!

Pico to the Yanks in the bottom of the 4th.

No Bauer in the 4th round.

I think we have to feel pretty confident in Bauer at the moment. As for Parker, I'll believe he makes it to campus when I see it. Everything I've heard is that he's going pro no matter what.

Would be huge if we could get Jacob Parker to campus. Insane power, good speed. And as Keith Law said in his draft notes, it is not like Jacob is a hack up there with a lot of swing and miss. It is just that his brother JoJo has 99.999th percentile hand eye so it makes a tough comparison for anyone else.

Bauer is far from a done deal for MSU, but our chances of getting him to campus are steadily increasing. Congrats to Pico.

Hickson has been drafted.

Hickson last pick in the 5th.

We have to start thinking that Bauer has a number that is higher than what teams want to pay. I hope that is accurate.

Arroyo from Va drafted in the 5th

Yep. Everyone in the SEC is going to take some hits. You have to like how it's going for us thus far though.

Everything I've heard was that he had a 1st round number and wasn't moving off of it. Said he wanted to come to school and it would take life changing money to persuade him otherwise. I always get ancy when I hear that statement though because that is the EXACT statement I heard about Austin Riley.

Word on the street (not super confident) is that he already had a high number/didn't agree on money and was planning to be in Starkville and teams new that

LSU and Tennessee have taken some big hits so far. We've survived for the most part. Of course it helps when our two best players, and two best pro prospects, from last year weren't draft eligible.

Scary off the board now in the 8th. Good luck big dawg

That's two big bullets today that have been lost today. Either Hickson or Siary was penciled in to be the Sunday starter next year. Going to need a guy like Charlie Foster or Maddux Bruns to really take that next step and be able to give us 4-5 on a Sunday.
