Congratulations, Luis Moreno, on being named @MiLB's Eastern League Pitcher of the Week for June 19th - June 25th.

The 24-year-old is in his first year at the Double-A level. He signed with the Mets out of the Dominican Republic as an International Free Agent on June 8, 2019

2023 MLB Free Agent Pitcher FaBIO Evolutions: 

Rafael Montero 

Middling middle relief profile, forward-splitty. Overachieved at AVG & ISO on Batted Balls in '22, fooling many (including HOU field staff & owner) into thinking he's a high-leverage RP. Valuation: ~$5M/year

Utah Valley RHSP Casey Anderson currently owns the 13th highest FaBIO Overall Rating ("least expected runs per batter faced") among draft-eligible SP qualifiers in this almost-done NCAA D1 season, with a 98th percentile Strikeouts Rating (thanks mostly to a 200 Stuff slider)

CLICK HERE - NATIONAL CHAMPS! LSU Defeats Florida for a 7th CWS Title - 

LSU returned to the pinnacle of college baseball on Monday, defeating SEC rival Florida, 18-4, to win its seventh national championship and the 2023 College World Series. 

Led by second-year head coach Jay Johnson – who became the first coach to win a title prior to his third season at an institution – LSU (54-17) overcame a 2-0 first-inning deficit by scoring six in the second and four in the fourth inning to take a commanding 10-2 lead. 

LSU start Thatcher Hurd (8-3) earned his second win in the series, throwing six innings and allowing only two runs on two hits – the first two batters he faced – while striking out seven. 

 

Peter Flaherty III @PeterGFlaherty 

Such a big fan of Wyatt Langford’s operation. Strong base, barrel stays level through the hitting zone. Thunderous bat speed with an explosive back side. Professional hitter - hammers the baseball to all fields. Potential No. 1 overall pick this July.
