This is a really great pickup. He throws some heat.

He pitches but he was a really good ss in high school

His dad played in the minors.

Was one of the highest ranked high school players in last years class to make it to college.

55th overall on PG. Serna was the only LSU player ranked higher that didn’t leave for the draft

Keep bringing in pitchers. We need some quality depth at that position

Might be one of the primary bullpen arms, rather than a depth piece, with his K/BB ratio.

I was going to say this pickup reminds me of the eyanson pickup.

Another Top 100 pickup, this makes us 6 for 6 in Top 150 players on 64 analytics rankings. 5 of the 6 in the top 100....they have ranked over 5k players in the portal.

We are the only team with 100% of our commits in the Top 250 with at least 5 total commits on 64 analytics right now
