Jones will probably get picked in the 2nd or 3rd round. With his struggles, he'd be stupid to come back.

Ibarra may be picked later because he doesn't have a clear cut position and he's really small. He just might come back if he's picked 8th round or later.

Eades is definitely gone, as he is a 1st round pick or compensation pick at the very latest unless he gets injured.

I don't see any other juniors going. McMullen may be drafted late for his speed, but I think he comes back. Ross may be drafted mid round (8th -15th round or later), but I would bet he comes back. I don't believe any JR pitchers are going to get drafted, and if they do it will be extremely late. I'd bet on all coming back. MAYBE Lamarche will get drafted, but I'd bet it'd be so late he comes back.

As for the seniors and their draft position:

Katz will probably go in the top 5 rounds depending on if scouts think he can play 2nd or another position. Also, there are some questions about if his power will translate.

Edward won't be drafted.

Bourgeois might be a late pick.

Yocom and Berry probably won't be drafted.

Bonvillain and Cotton both will be drafted late due to them being lefties.

Ross will get drafted higher than this based on his defensive abilities. Offense is always secondary with a catcher. IMO, I don't think he will be returning next year.

No way this happens.

He is a lefty, but he throws about 84. I would be absolutely shocked if Cotton got drafted.
