re: I’d draft Herring before Jump, Jones before White

Don’t know how the draft will fall out but I think Herring offers more versatility including starter potential than Jump.
Bear made professional hitting adjustments this year that I never saw White make. Plus I think Jones will slot into a 1B/DH power role while Tanks is a huge question mark at 3B.

.........and this is why you are not being paid to give these god awful evaluations.

Good thing you’ll never be a GM

Jones before White. Nah, just look at two glaring differences, batting average and career consistency. Not even close.

---

Consistency? White's average dropped from .374 in '23 to .330 in '24.

Jones went from .304 in '23 to .301 in '24 and reduced his K/AB tremendously.

While their career SLG% are almost identical, Jones OBP and OPS in '24 were better than any of White's 3 college seasons as is his career HR/AB of 9.3 to White's 10.5.

Is your superpower crack?

Cause you’re definitely smoking crack.

Career. HRs, BA, & RBIs. 2 years each. No comparison.

Tommy White was one of the best defensive third basemen in college baseball last year. See, you have to actually do some research or, I don't know, WATCH, before you bring this crap in here.

I’m gonna hold your feet to the fire here, I’m hoping to get a little clarity on what you’re saying…

How so? What does herring have or show that Jump doesn’t or can’t?

Like what exactly? Be specific.

Being a retarded virgin is his super power.

Tanks huge question at 3rd
You mean is he coming back to play 3rd at LSU? NO he’s going Pro

Thats like saying Burrow is a question mark at QB.....

He was a star at 3rd.
