I'm curious to see the Florida v TAnM this weekend. Friday how does Prager look on the road vs a top 10 team. How good will Jac be against a couple of top bats.
Prager's line) 4 wins 0.0 Era 23.2 innings 9 h 40 k's 3 bb's 1 hb 0.507 whip
It’ll be interesting to see how guys rise and fall when the meat of conference play starts. I think some guys (Burns, Condon, Monty) who would likely be available won’t be if the draft were today.
I am with you in the tanks fan club but I am also starting to think it is unlikely the pirates take him. The more I read and see from him the more I think he doesn’t fit the typical pirate style selection. He plays below average d at a corner (most likely 1B) and he is a free swinger that swings at stuff out of the zone and early in counts which the pirates seem to discourage.
Who are you?? Did we just become best friends?? I love the College Baseball knowledge!!
Most Pirates fans would have no clue who A&M Friday night SP is!!
And btw, A&M whole pitching staff has been exceptional this season. Prager, Lamkin, Cortez, Sdao, Tanner Jones, Josh Stewart, Aschenbeck, Rudis, Badmaev and Morton.
And Weston Moss and Eldridge Armstrong will turn it around too. They both have really good stuff.
A&M stole Seattle PC, Max Weiner, which was a great/underrated hire!! Link here
Ya, Archenbeck and the bullpen have been crazy good too.
Zane Badmaev Is interesting. Huge dude and throws gas.
He’s a Senior and a Tarleton State transfer, which a WAC school(famous for Grand Canyon and Jack Wilson).
And like I said, probably the two best arms in the bullpen, Eldridge Armstrong III, who is a SD ST transfer and was apart of the Collegiate National team, and Weston Moss, who is only a Freshman and was a pretty well-known Prep and big get for A&M, haven’t even performed well yet.
Well Jac took Prager deep twice. Prager only lasted 2.1 innings.
I think Burns will be injured constantly but could be like Glasnow.

And Montgomery!
He's one of the bats from AnM, with next year's projected top 5 pick in LaViolette.
I know. But he’s gonna be the Bucs’ pick, so I thought I should mention him by name ;).
He's who I want that is realistically going to be available. I wouldn't be surprised if he went before we picked though.

I'd put Hagen Smith with those 3, after a bad first inning in his first game he's been dominat against good competition.
We might get lucky and JJ or Kurtz could fall, JJ by injury and Kurtz because he is getting pitched around.
Obligatory: Tommy Tanks or bust

Tommy isn't looking the same this year, maybe not having Crews and Morgan around him is causing pitchers to avoid him some.
But the xSWAG though
The xSWAG is elite easily 70 grade if not 80 on a game winner.

AnM has the best outfield in D1 this year in my opinion as well. Aschenbeck had 4 strong innings on Saturday.
Jac was effectively wild Sunday, he still is showing better control pitching and plate discipline batting.
