    I think we agree on talent. I just need to see more than year & 1/2 to give him best P in baseball label..Or is this his 3rd year? Either way.. a bit to go for that ..IMO

    I would of argeed 1000% if said Raley best player in baseball..im about sick of him this series.

    Also.. is Colin Poche related to Jared from LSU??

    Howell excited to run it back for a fifth season with Auburn baseball (247sports.com)

    Got my wish.. He will set many unbreakable records.. Games started , played, ABs, probably hits, dbls, etc. Im not sure hes missed a start in 4+ years, maybe 1 or 2.

    Once I was sitting in the outfield at the old Comisky Park and Roland Hemond, the then currnt GM of the White Sox, sat down next to me. He clued me into the business end of things, but really wanted to know what fans wanted. I was not the best guy for him to talk to.

    looks like the Mets might fail to sign Sproat, they got Parada unsigned and Sproat.as well as about 4 lower round guys. If Parada takes slot value and the other 4, they got around 1mil to to not go over 5%. Clocks ticking

    thats providing they even wanna go over and pay the 75% tax

    Sproat expected to return. Great news if this holds true.

    A couple more high picks have officially signed:
    #40 Dalton Rushing (Louisville)
    #47 Ferris Jackson (Ole Miss recruit)
    #49 Cayden Wallace (Arkansas)
    #54 Parker Messick (SWAC)

    Six Remaining unsigned from the Top 100:
    #10 Kevin Parada (GT)
    #16 Chase DeLauter (James Madison)
    #37 Justin Campbell (Okie St)
    #81 Nolan McLean (Okie St)
    #90 Brandon Sproat
    #92 Joe Lampe (ASU)

    I haven’t bothered with the others below 100. So not sure how many of the Top 10 rounds remain unsigned.

    What is it with Mets draft. Last year and this year appear to be disastrous for their draft. If can’t sign picks this year, for whatever reason, they need to get a new GM.

    Sproat at #90 is a disrepect. After he got command of his two seamer he was stellar.
