I really like his write-up and age. There are a few guys, kelley included, where it's like "well maybe someone teaches him the dunning curve or cooper cutter".

Beck Way Ht: 6-4 | Wt: 200 | B-T: R-R Commit/Drafted: Louisiana State Age At Draft: 20.9 The top junior college prospect in a fairly deep class at the level, Way is a 6-foot-4, 200-pound righthander who showed really good stuff last summer in the Cape Cod League. While he threw just 13.2 innings for Cotuit last summer, Way impressed scouts enough by striking out 18 batters and posting a 3.29 ERA that some evaluators put him in the second-to-third-round range on his summer look alone. This spring with Northwest Florida JC, Way continued to impress, showing better control and a solid fastball/changeup combination. Way gets up to 96-97 mph with the fastball, though the pitch more typically sits in the 92-94 range. He creates uncomfortable at-bats due to his ability to spot his fastball in all four quadrants of the zone and he disrupts the timing of batters thanks to a plus changeup with exceptional tumbling action. Way’s slider is more inconsistent than his fastball and changeup, but it has shown flashes of being an average third offering. With two plus pitches, a good frame and above-average control, Way has put himself in position to be taken in the second round or slightly after.

I like Dingler and Parada I just thought parada was similar to Soderstrom in a bat only player. Lot of good picks on the board.

If you didn't like Nicolas' walk numbers you won't like Beeders. What do we think of the guy from that D3 school? edit: Nick Garcia from Chapman Nick Garcia Chapman (Calif.)RHP Notes: Ht: 6-4 | Wt: 215 | B-T: L-R Commit/Drafted: Never Drafted Age At Draft: 21.2 Garcia played third base his freshman year at Chapman before converting to pitching as a sophomore. He served as the closer on Chapman’s 2019 Division III national championship team and was named Most Outstanding Player of the College World Series. Garcia moved to the Panthers rotation this spring and became one of the fastest-rising prospects in the country before the season shut down. A strong 6-foot-4, 215 pounds, Garcia has an easy operation and smooth delivery, allowing him to maintain his stuff and pound the strike zone with all three of his pitches. He throws his fastball in the 92-95 mph range, touching 97-98, and backs it up with an upper-80s slider and mid-80s cutter that both have a chance to be above-average. Garcia has a limited track record as a starter and has rarely faced good competition, but he held his own pitching in relief in the Cape Cod League last summer. He is also young for a college junior and will be barely 21 on draft day. Garcia’s stuff, delivery, youth and fresh arm have teams interested on the draft’s first day. He is in line to be the highest Division III player selected since the Nationals drafted Jordan Zimmermann in the second round in 2007 out of Wisconsin-Stevens Point.

Laws best available from me on my phone Calabrese Dingler Swiney Van Eyk Ginn Kelley Collins Parada Beeder Hence Martin Tiedemann Wynn He’s significantly lower on J Jones

Does he? I though he looked the part beside the plate.

I’m always a bit nervous when BA is the high publication on a sox guy in the draft (and mlb pipeline for actual prospects) I love the BA guys because they love what they do and do a great job, but they fall in love with college players and always seem to believe competitiveness or that they showed success in college will overcome clear issues.

Ah that’s right I thought Wilcox went earlier but that was a twitter mishap from longenhagen

Also still possible for the all- @haroldsleglift draft with Fulton still there

Feels like all those prod starters gonna be gone tonight. Van eyk, burns, mcmahon

Ah interesting. I know people like Loftin but it seemed like that “could be a solid (ie replaceable) regular!” Type writeups

Baltimore fans probably uh thrilled

Holy lol sabato is huuuge

Classic rays

They are going to have to debug their draft computer

Who has punched their teammates in the face

Wow yorke

2nd

Chaim bloom is Oscar isaac

Hell yeah

Gonna be so sweet when we get Howard in two years by trading them lopez

He’s very very nice.

Round two I still like masyn winn/Jared Jones...but it depends on the college pitchers available. Seems like they won’t be around though.

I remember him as a Vaughn supporter...it was the previous year

Which isn’t to say “we just should trust the Sox” our chuck style just that I have more muted view this year.
