Wait… a pitcher?

Said he was a sophomore, not senior.

He’s a sophomore.

Which could make him a tough sign.

You're right.  was following MLB.com site.

Tony, can you reclassify from Sr to Sophomore (4-year sophomore??)

Possibly, if he thinks he can improve and go in as a junior next year hoping for much higher.

20 y/ draft eligible sophomore.

Kiley talked about how he was a highly regarded guy coming out of HS. Was a catcher who converted to starting full time.

He said he had a lot of traits and measurables scouts love nowadays.

This is a projectability pick. This is a, we see that there is a lot to work with.

Definitely didn’t have the strategy tonight that I thought they would go with but seems like there is a lot of untapped upside with each pick.

Kiley had him at #68 (right behind Horvath).

[SteveA]

The highest we've drafted a pitcher under Elias.

[Can_of_corn]

Sweet a pitcher.

Hopefully he signs, sounds like he doesn't have a ton of mileage on the arm.

[bpilktree]

He has a Dean Kremer big time drop curve ball for sure.

Big frame. Not a lot of wear and tare. Gets Ks. It’ll be interesting to see how much he pitchers this year. Assuming he throws some in the FCL.
