Lost our 3rd Class of 2024 commit to t.u. Hoping Williams does not get drafted otherwise this class will be gutted when it comes to pitching depth.
Seriously, every year after the draft you see 8-10 additional commitments. Also you now have the portal to supliment your needs.
Great thread as always. I believe slot values for rounds 11-20 have gone up to 150k before needing to dip into the rest of your pool.

I know that, but Navarre and Rerick have potential to anchor a rotation in the future.
Let's see if they last more than a year there.
Minor, minor, minor thing...but it is bugging me.
Decommitted is misspelled in your OP updates - missing the second m.

Oops
Although losing 2 guys (2024 pitchers) to Mini sucks, it led to me doing some research on "the other guys" (not the movie).
I wouldn't sleep on the Grand Oaks boys. Barnhard throws gas. He's mid 90s now and has hit 100 mph when going all out. He works hard. The book is that Barnhard looks more like a reliever/closer right now because he loses velo over longer outings. He also needs a 3rd pitch (change or curve but best bet is a change). Right now fastball/slider. If anyone's a Cortez type, maybe along with LeBlanc, it's Barnhard. He's moved up some boards recently. Real improvement over the last year.
Tomlinson has good velo, sitting at 92-94 in starts with an easy delivery and has gotten up to 97. One scouting report on his fastball - "big spin and teeth and will jump over barrels". Appears a little more well rounded/developed at this point as a potential starter type than say Barnhard. Curve and change can be good. Continued development with command/control of his secondary pitches is needed.
Two righties to go with the 6'5 lefty, Cooper Williams. Cooper sitting low 90's to 94 range in his starts but his secondary pitches are already really good and he can fill up the zone. Command and control good. Scouts also think he has real velo upside with his frame. Need to get him to campus and keep little Weiner away.
I think the Grand Oaks boys have already reconfirmed their commitments since the coach change.
Just killing time before the draft. Haha.

Brauny mentioned Appel did not apply for his extra Covid voucher, so he cannot return to A&M next year. Should all but guarantee him getting drafted now.
Is it 6 yet?

Pre-Draft stuff on ESPN right now.
LSU able to get a 1st round Pitcher to withdraw his name. Must got some serious NIL money.
Brauny said his stock was dropping and he's from Baton Rouge. Probably was not going to go that high.BurnetAggie99 said:

Branden Montgomery is in studio for the draft
Cajun mafia and living in Baton Rouge. He had to stay.
Braden.
HS kid being interviewed covered in Acne. Dang, to young.
So who's everyone's guess on who goes number 1.

JJ Wetherholt
Agreed
Travis Bazzana would be my pick for #2
Him or Condon, I think.
I honestly don't know. Could be any of 3-5 playersLB12Diamond said:

Auto correct
How is this the first time this franchise (which has been around since 1901) has ever had the first overall pick? Surely I didn't hear that wrong?
Christian Moore just said he wants to go some place with great fans.
He's getting drafted by the Rays now.

"The highlight of my baseball career came in Philadelphia's Connie Mack Stadium when I saw a fan fall out of the upper deck. When he got up and walked away, the crowd booed."

EDIT - A couple of more Bob Uecker quote regarding Philadelphia baseball fans:
"They'd boo a blind child on an Easter-egg hunt."
"On off days, they go to the airport and boo bad landings."

We've claimed a table at Harvey Washbangers to watch.
