    He was excellent in the regional when there was the crazy rumor Pico was out and heading to surgery.

    Baseball America had him as the 2nd highest rated roster player for the draft. Baseball America thinks he was a Top-250 MLB prospect, up there with a few Friday Night SEC aces. They unranked him after he withdrew. Should be better in 2026 with his 2025 experience.

    In college baseball, a pitcher can ride 2 pitches to big things. In the Bob Tweksbury book of pitching, he explained that the STL cardinals org demanded high control, common tunneling, differential speeds, and identical arm slot from any pitch claimed, by that threshold many guys only had 2 pitches and that was enough to be a good pro. BT got 13 major league years with his pitching philosophies.
