He had 7 and leader had 9. The guy has hit everywhere and has some pop. I know New Mexico State doesn't face great competition but he lead college baseball in average, 2nd behind Rutschman in OPS, 5th in OBP & 3rd in SLG. http://pointstreak.com/baseball/leaders.html?leagueid=166&seasonid=31871 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also really into Howard after reading more on him. On Howard: It’s a weak middle infield class for prep players. There are no shortstops of the caliber of Bobby Witt Jr. or CJ Abrams, but Howard is the cream of the crop and is a standout defender with an uber projectable frame and athleticism most teams love. He’s not the most polished bat, but is mechanically sound and has shown enough flashes for teams to dream on his offensive ability in the future. This could be the first year without multiple high school shortstops selected in the first round since 2006, when none were taken. They're gonna want to rewrite that report on Howard. This is not gonna age well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GGajewski18 Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 I'm all in on Crochet or Howard. I'm leaning towards college pitching and then HS players in rounds to follow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold's Leg Lift Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 I agree. They need top end pitching and it's nice when a draft is deep in a need. They won't have to reach to fill a position of need. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They won't have to reach to fill a position of need. Sox should really be open to selecting best prospect available regardless of position. An advanced college arm likely appeals because he could get to the majors quickly, but the organization may want to resist the urge to select quick impact over a better long term prospect. The best organizations scout and draft well year in and year out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold's Leg Lift Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 It's likely the best player available will be a college pitcher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harold's Leg Lift Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 College baseball starts tomorrow. There are a dozen pitchers I expect to come out and announce their presence with authority. This is going to be a really fun spring. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harold's Leg Lift Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 These are the guys I'll be keeping an eye on. That's a big pile of college pitching man goo. Georgia- Emerson Hancock and Cole Wilcox Mississippi St- JT Ginn Texas A&M- Asa Lacy Florida- Tommy Mace Oklahoma- Cade Cavalli Florida St- CJ Van Eck Louisville- Reid Detmers Miami- Chris McMahon and Slade Cecconi Tennessee- Garrett Crotchet Vandy- Jake Eder South Carolina- Carmen Mlodzinski Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Y2Jimmy0 Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 I think the Sox are going high school in round 1 and more prep focused overall. Hopefully these college guys push preps down the board. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said the same thing months ago and Hostetler kinda hinted at that before too. Lower levels definitely need more influx of younger talent. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harold's Leg Lift Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 The system definitely needs an influx of athleticism/ceiling but they also need high end pitching. I think it's gonna be awfully hard for them to pass on a dude they can pencil in the rotation in a couple years. I'd like to see them pop a college pitcher at 1-11 and then load up on high school athletes the rest of the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reid Detmers, LHP, Louisville Areas To Improve: Changeup improvement Detmers is one of the most polished arms in the class, with solid stuff and good control of his entire repertoire, but at the next level it will be even more important for Detmers to have a solid offering to attack righthanded hitters. His breaking ball is perhaps the best in the ACC, but as he faces more advanced hitters who are better equipped to handle that break, going to a solid third pitch to keep batters off-balance could be the difference-maker. Sounds almost like Carson Fulmer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
