No. 18 Tampa Bay Rays PJ Morlando, OF, Summerville High School, Summerville, S.C.
No. 19 New York Mets Luke Holman, RHP, LSU Baseball
We originally had East Carolina Baseball standout Trey Yesavage here but Holman’s start to the season is hard to ignore and he seems to be the player most likely to climb into the top 15 if not the top 10 of prospect rankings by July.
Holman hasn’t given up a run yet in 18 innings and three starts. He has 30 strikeouts and just two walks.
He had a strong season in 2023 after transferring from Alabama. He had a 3.67 ERA in 81 innings and 15 starts for the national champions. His fastball has touched 96 and he throws four pitches: fastball, slider, change-up and curveball.
The Mets need more pitching. The offensive holes they could always fill with their free agent pursuits. But with David Stearns running baseball operations, the former Brewers leader will likely look for pitching in the system.
No. 20 Toronto Blue Jays: Jonathan Santucci, LHP, Duke Baseball
Finally see an arm. I don’t want to see bats, we have enough.
ReplyDeleteHow do we get Barriera and another pitcher from the Blue Jays? What do they need to dethrone the Orioles?
