I heard last night we are about to close on a big time SS don't
know who or the school Has anyone else heard anything substantial.
-
Yes, BOC is in communication with a few more portal guys and a SS is definitely in play.
-
I didn’t know there was a big one left in the portal- hopefully we are tampering
Walk like the King or walk like you don't care who the King is
-
I think it’s the Cal State Fullerton SS if that’s true
-
There are still several really good SS left.
Not elite but with the way our lineup is shaping up, we don't need elite.
-
Well, we are going to have to sign a SS whether elite or not. We have Woodson who could play the position but I think he played more 3B and 2B at NC State. We have to have another legitimate SS on the roster. Jojo Parker could start there day 1 but the odds of getting him to school is probably less than 1%.

Maddox Lotta from Cal State Fullerton would be pretty close to elite. Defensively he has the best metrics and he had 30+ steals there. Also had more walks than K's.
He doesn't have the power that Becker has or the pro ceiling but he is a much better defender and brings some other valuable things to the table.

Sounds really good, gets on base and plays defense.

We just need a really good glove who can hit about .250 and put down a bunt when needed.

Lotta is a really good glove who can hit over .300 with 5 bombs and steal 20-30 bases.

2B from UVA - Henry Godbout is in the portal
Wonder if he can be the SS. Plays SS in summer ball. BOC would know his range for SS.
Pre Season All American in 2025
Trick is that he is an NYC kid, same Prep School as Henry Ford, and he is draft eligible.

Near 500 on base percentage - ideal leadoff man.
But draft eligible, 4 years in college already. Smells like draft Draft Leverage?
-
Godbout is the #72 rated draft prospect
They specifically say that he could be a SS but needs time there to prove it. One position higher than Henry Ford.

Perhaps. And I say perhaps because he went JUCO first so he may or may not have some leverage.

Yup.
And speaking of that, this new draft time is way worse than it was before. Yeah, it was weird having guys drafted while literally playing in OMAHA, but that only impacts a few players/teams. This new time slot FU<KS everyone!

Just tamper and get people without entering the portal post-draft. Miami/Wisconsin case fixing to show the portal windows are a joke.

Wisconsin better hope this does not get into discovery. All Miami will have to do is start digging into the Caleb Williams stuff. Wisconsin was tampering heavily and thought they had him.
