Biloxi Saturday and Sunday. I plan on doing BPB. Scuba usually doesn't stats for these sort of events.

Caden Borcherding

Just saw this guy committed. What do you know about him?


i only know him because he has been in the Team Elite org for a while. kid is a stud catcher, big flip for us and apparently Jay made him a priority and went after him hard, suddenly.

Getting the Commit from Dex is big but like Stryker Pence...doubt he ends up playing college ball, but can see Dex playing it much more than Stryker.

Big get, skeptical he ever sees a classroom though.


i am too...but of all the prospects at the very very top...he is prolly the most likely. Good kid, great ball player. Has always played up in age, been starting 2 way at buford since he stepped on campus as a freshman. just a dude.

Glad he found a good landing spot and it's not in the SEC

I doubt this is true, but I wonder if Jay had a hand in Tucker landing there. Old stomping grounds, knows most of the coaching staff well, and an area he knows well. Could be a way to get him back in a year or two

There was already a way to get him back in a year or two, just taking him from JUCO.

I think the roster limits are playing into this. We added Malachi Washington to the infield competition for the next few years.

So that makes it:

Luke Tucker - Corner INF/DH

vs

(for general roster spots and at 3rd)
Washington - playing multiple INF spots and can play OF
Loew - can play all INF spots
Martinez - multiple infield spots and RHP
Ruckert - multiple INF spots, corner OF, and C
Pearson - same positions, but with SEC experience

plus all the guys at 1B and the overflow OFs and Cs at DH.

Everyone else he would be competing against here for a spot, let alone a starting position, offers either more versatility or relevant experience.

He made the right choice to go to JUCO and get as many ABs and reps in the field as he could to maximize his chances of getting a roster spot somewhere that has more availability for CIF/DH types. We're just loaded there right now.

Reading some fall baseball reports on D1 Baseball and I just learned that former LSU pitcher Dylan Thompson (left here after 2 years for Blinn CC) is now at BYU.

Just a small change of pace from LSU to BYU, culturally.

Santarelli with the 117.7 exit velo. Does anyone remember higher at LSU? I don't. Only Cags and MLB guys.

The hardest ball last offseason was Caraway at 113.

Serna had one at 112.

Both are a far cry from 117

Not the best thread for this but didnt realize Clif Godwin at ECU took a personal leave of absence last month and now may be out permanently. Rumor is drug use but nothing confirmed.

Always viewed him as a solid coach and recruiter building a consistently competitive program at a place like ECU.

It was the only ball Caraway hit at all last season.

I forgot about his leave of absence. And that sucks to hear. The Wake Forest situation keeps getting more headlines.

Hope everything gets better for Cliff. ECU has been a solid program but he really upped the standard there. A ton of guys in the majors that played for him. His 2020 team could probably have finally gotten them to Omaha. Gavin Williams, Connor Norby, Carsen Whisenhunt, Alec Burleson, among others.

Would be interesting to see what ultimately happens with Tom Walter. The online sentiment has definitely swung in his favor with outright calls to oust the AD. Not that the mob has any sway... maybe.

Still unclear what exactly happened there.
