Lastres was the highest rated catcher in Florida in 2021 and top 4 in country. He can hit and has a rifle for an arm- sadly TJ surgery- I believe...
Parada signed - reportedly for $24K over slot. Not a massive amount over slot so Mets may have the flexibility to up the offer for Sproat. One...
Fully agree and his two seamer has wicked movement now that he can trust it. If Sproat returns - and it's looking more and more likely- the...
All good points- which is why he likely he is driving a hard bargain and wants above slot- with the way he stepped up into the spotlight after...
Yes- the clock is ticking on Sproat and in talking to MLB scouts at the ballpark- they agree age matters. He would be closing in on 23 next year-...
We all want the best for the Gators- but Sproat as a player and for his own development would be better off going on to the next level. He has...
Thanks Matt-- informative piece. Given that Parada has not signed and is also driving a hard bargain- that increases the chances of Sproat not...
Have been off line for a few- what's the scuttlebutt on Sproat? Is he driving a hard bargain?. He will be approaching 23 in next draft so a a...
Some justifiable critiques of where the program has dropped off since 2018 (last trip to Omaha). Three years when they failed to get out of the...
Yep- Manning to Arizona State- change of scenery will do him good- and dry climate can only help. Little doubt he felt there was limited player...
Specht is a case in point. Ben was a talented young man (projected AA) and was relegated after losing his mechanics and few rough outings last...
87, thanks for laying out as it is. There was/is considerable concern on how pitchers are being developed (or not) at UF. For almost a decade,...
Fully agree that Abner and Prevesk need more time- but they have to get their reps. While we are on the subject of reps- I'm surprise that Tucker...
I'll be there in the Fall Matt- no worries. I got Coppola and Langford spot on- but admit, I missed on Abner and Hartman for sure- In the Fall,...
Come on 87- it's off-season now- speak your mind-- LOL.
From the scuttlebutt, Kopp added little to coaching the pitchers and if you'll recall - he stopped going to the mound down the stretch. Rumors...
Down the Stretch? Do you mean-- when the games really counted in a major way? Yes, many of us noted how many times the result was an...
On the transfer portal guys- it may be a question of coaching approach, from the rumors. Some feel that they were not well coached or not enough...
Off Topic- but did any one notice how Sooners kicked Aggies butt today in Omaha? That my friends should be us. We had the Sooners on the ropes...
On Transfer Portal- I can see Manninig and Talbott taking the gap as well. I thought Talbott wasn't given his fair chance at reps. The few...
