Just threw a no hitter in playoffs, per MSB.

Second no-no of the year.

Don't know what kind of prospect he is, but I would hope that if he were good enough to play at LSU, he would choose to walk on.

I think he would be a college prospect, but I don't think he has the velocity to pitch at a big school.

I would assume if he wanted to be on the LSU team he will be on the LSU team.

Of course. He also still has two years to get stronger and get his fastball into the 80s.

I can't imagine him not being able to walk-on where he chooses, it's moreso about getting a scholarship.

I was saying that even if he's good enough to warrant a scholly, I'd hope that he would walk-on.

His fastball isn't in the 80's? He threw a no hitter against Calvary in the semis but can't hit 80? I find that hard to believe. 70's is extremely average in high school, I don't know if you can throw 2 no hitters throwing 76.

I don't think he can consistently pitch 80. Occasionally, he'll get there but his range 75-80. There is hearsay though. I have no direct connection Manny or U high.

If I am correct Manny is on the older side of 10th grade. Maybe even old enough to be an 11th grader. I am not sure of his birthday but I know he is at least 16. If he isn't throwing 80 that's pretty slow even for high school. I would hope throws at least 80.

So, you acknowledge that you're an idiot and just post pure shite for the sake of posting it? Nice.

Impressive stats regardless of how hard he throws. Would LSU relish having 10 Determan's (sp) and Cottons? frick yeah.

That's what I was thinking, LINK perfect game says he hit 80 mph almost 2 years ago. Would had to think he picked up some mph since then, that was going into his freshman year.

No. I'm posting what I heard because there's next to zero information on his ability. I have siblings his age and they're friends with a lot of baseball players at UHigh. I went to one of the playoffs game in BR and talked to them and some of friends who have played against him.

No need to be so mad.
