Mark Zagunis, C/OF, Virginia
Tech - One of the more athletic catchers you will find, the 6’-1”, 200-pound
right-hander stole 17 bases in 22 attempts as a freshman. He also hit .344 with
13 doubles, five home runs, 34 RBI with a slash line of .430/.513/.943 over 49
games, striking out just 25 times. He has started the year out hitting .415
(22-for-53) for the Hokies with five doubles, a home run, 14 RBI and six stolen
bases. It remains to be seen if he will stick at catcher or end up in a corner
outfield position. His bat and athleticism will find a way into a lineup at the
next level.
6-10-13 - Tyler Beede, RHP,
Vanderbilt - The 2013 SEC Pitcher of the Year looks like a top 10 selection in
next year’s draft. Beede’s stuff is
dominant. His fastball sits 93-95 and he
can touch 98. His curve can be a plus
pitch and he also throws a good change.
The key for Beede will be improvement of his command. He has walked 60 in 98.1 IP this season and
when he misses, he can miss big. LINK
6-11-13 - 1. Carlos Rodon,
LHP, North Carolina State: The Wolfpack are headed to the College World Series
and Rodon is a big reason why. Even after starting slowly, the big lefty has
gone 9-2 with a 3.19 ERA and 170 strikeouts in 118 1/3 innings. There is almost
universal consensus that he's the early choice to be No. 1 in 2014. LINK
6-11-13 - UNC 5, #USC 4 - North Carolina advances to the
College World Series – the Gamecocks learned a valuable lesson today that they
are going to have to think about during this entire off-season. We spend so
much time talking about arms and bats and we just forget about defense. I own a
Mets web site and we Mets fans have suffered for years with shoddy ‘D’. The
same cost South Carolina their season today. I hope they will deal with that in
the off-season.
