Didn’t they draft him out of high school?

Yes. They drafted him twice. I'm anxious to see what level he starts out at. The Cubs have 2 rookie league teams in the AZL and then a Short Season team in Eugene, Oregon.

I would think he would go to Eugene. Sanders may go to the complex to control his innings a little bit more.

So he left Lsu for around 70 grand after taxes. He must’ve really wanted out

His family isn't hurting for money and it wasn't guaranteed that he would have a spot in the starting 9 next year. He did what he thinks is best for him. Can't fault the guy for that.

Pretty sure he was told he didn’t have a spot next year, and it would be best for him to go...

Slaughter was strongly encouraged to sign regardless of draft round by Coach Mainieri

You’re really going to blame a Freshman for a loss on the CWS Championship?

So the two errors by the first baseman did not hurt us. I do remember the slide as well

I mean if LSU had an intelligent coach to put Bain at 1st base at the time...
