When I posted the OP, I could have sworn the draft schedule was Saturday through Monday, but now mlb.com has this:

In the latest episode of the B-Team, Brauny provides his assessment of the likelihood each A&M player and commit goes pro or not. According to Brauny:

Weston Moss: Pro
Clayton Freshcorn: Says he will never be more than 49% confident Freshcorn returns until the draft is over, but the likelihood has increased since the end of the season

Incoming Freshman:
Trey Ebel: Pro
Connor Comeau: Pro
Ryan Harwood: 70% school
CJ Sampson: 65-70% school
Matthew Kelley: 55-60% school
Trent Vilade: 50/50

Everyone else who is either a high school commit or an incoming transfer is expected to make it to campus.

I highly doubt it, but if we walk away with only Comeau and Ebel signing pro contracts out of our freshman group, that is an extremely massive win.

Add in Freshcorn coming back for another ride and it would be an absolute best case scenario.

ESPN's mock draft has Hacopian going 8th overall (which would be an Aggie record for a position player), and Ebel, Comeau, Sorrell, and Grahovac all in the 2nd round.

Brauny said he think comeau could actually have a chance of coming to school now. Apparently his number is high and he's firm on it. Teams don't wanna pay he might not get drafted and paid what he wants.

Josh Livingston is no longer committed to the Aggies

By my count we are up to 43 players before losing any incoming commits to the draft or any possible returns of Freshcorn or Moss.

Both Schlaegel and especially Minick are draft risks. Minick based on his 2025 season.

Yes and the dragging it out is annoying.

I miss when the later rounds were on a Monday so I could listen passively at work as each pick was made every 60 seconds.

First spot to watch will be the Athletics at #8. That is where ESPN had Hacopian going.

I'm sure I'm really missing something but I just don't see Curiel as a top 10 talent.

Drew Buress to the A's. A few surprise picks so far may push Hacopian back a little.

You can't see why the kid who averaged .345 & 353 both years at LSU was drafted top 10? +Hitting, +Run & +Fielding with his only concern being his power...say what you want about LSU but cmon man lol

When there's 6-8 other guys that also play well in the field, hit.350 and hit ~20 bombs, yeah I'm surprised. I'm not saying he's bad. He's clearly a good player. But I think he's a high floor, low ceiling player. I expected him in in 15-20 range.

As expected, Trey Ebel is off the board

Supposedly there's a chance Comeau can make it. Harwood and Sampson are the most realistic choices though.

Sampson is going to school. He will be another Michael Wacha type for us. Kid is really good!
