Oregon State vs. Florida State on ESPN2

Arnold vs. Arquette tomorrow night.

Volini pitches for FSU tonight.

Lodise for FSU is having a tremendous 2025 season at the plate, batting over .400 all season long. Where will he go in the draft? Draft boards haven't moved him off his low ranking. Perhaps end of day 1? 2nd or 3rd round?

Arnold vs. Arquette tomorrow night.

no conflict with the Cards game (day game)
thx Duce.
gotta check out Arnold.
you see the WHOLE game you see the warts also.
those HIGHLIGHT videos just show the strikeouts, etc making the player "appear" perfect

as of right now (draft still long ways off), what I would love is somehow, some way, Kade Anderson falls in our lap at #5.

Extremely doubtful, but one can hope.

Otherwise, I like Willits a lot.

Willits is incredible, and I'm feeling as we approach the draft, he would be a steal at #5. I don't think he'll be available...but 1-4 could all go pitching and he might be there.

You've always been complimentary of Willits, but I've not seen you this high on him up until this point. So, you don't think Willits makes it to #5? If he doesn't, i'd think that means we'd have a shot at 1 of: Arnold, Anderson, Hernandez, or Holiday. I think i'd be stoked with any of those 5 (includes Willits)

The way I rate him, no, I don't think he nor Holliday will be available. Now, I know each team drafts differently, perfect example is the Angels.... so on draft day, Willits will likely be available to us, if the Nats don't draft him at #1.

Is Willitisbetter than Holiday?

[kyace]

My guess now for draft: Anderson to Nats,think they will underslot him.Angels take Arnold as he is most ready , Seattle takes Arquette as they could use a RH middle infielder who is a fast riser. Rockies likely won’t pass on Holiday but could go with Fernandez. That leaves Cards with possibly a shot at Holiday which they would take but if gone then will have to choose between Willits and Fernandez. A great position to be in.

I like Anderson a lot.
reminds me kinda of Chris Sale.
doubt he makes it to #5 unfortunately

Hey, Cardzilla. How have you been?

Kade is the best LHP of the bunch.

[craviduce]

I didn't see the game last night, but 2 1st round prospects shined in Auburn. Ike Irish, RF and Caden Bodine, C brought the power last night.

Bodine with 2 HR, helped Coastal Carolina outlast Auburn in extras. Ike Irish with another post season HR for Auburn.

How does Arnold compare Hagen Smith in in the previous MLB draft?

[St. Lew]

You gotta like Liam Doyle's spirit in this recent outing during the regional finals v Wake Forest.

[Aday96]

Best case scenario for the cards is one of Doyle or Anderson falls to 5 or one of Holliday or Willits as the hs bats. Grab one of those four and I'm pretty happy with it being a weak draft.
