Kendall Rogers - @KendallRogersPG - Telling you, would have no issue with MLB org taking Mike Zuninio No. 1
Rio Ruiz could be released today from hospital
CJ Hinojosa is having shoulder surgery and will be sidelined for 4-6 months
A struggling Chris Beck got a save for his Georgia Southern team Tuesday against Georgia Tech.
Russell County’s Rock Rucker tossed a no-hitter over the weekend, striking out 11
South Carolina’s Joey Pankake - pectoralis strain in left shoulder
Tom Murphy, C, University of Buffalo: Hitting .361/.462/.736 with six homers, 16 walks, 20 strikeouts in 72 at-bats. Has caught seven of 14 runners and has made just one error. Junior, a very intriguing power hitter from a northern school who has a good eye at the plate but also strikes out some. Runs well for a catcher and has defensive tools but needs more polish. Draft position will depend on how teams evaluate his chances to stick behind the plate, but I can't see him getting past the second round if he continues to hit well
Speaking of stuff, Arizona State’s Jake Barrett sure isn’t short on it. If the righty is going good on the mound, he has first-round stuff by most accounts. Barrett is capable of running his fastball up to the upper 90s, although mid 90s is to be expected on a more consistent basis. As far as his secondary stuff goes, it might not always be there, but when it is the Sun Devils’ closer can certainly miss a lot of bats with it. The 6-foot-3, 230 lbs. pitcher can lean on his fastball right now because it has great life to go with that premium velocity. More than anything, he needs to concentrate on commanding his top two pitches. If Barrett can be a better strike thrower within the zone, there’s no telling what he can do. Not to mention it will convince a number of teams that his recent move to the bullpen is only a temporary one. With his stuff, it seems rather likely that whichever team drafts him will try him out in the rotation first. - link
