That Selvidge slot value is $638K and it's the Yankees so they may exceed that by a little bit.

The Royals may look to make a splash locally with either Jensen or Kudrna since their 1st rounder is almost assuredly going underslot.



Well, how about both?

Having Jack Walker in this class would have been super beneficial. I still hate pulmonary for that

I guess we can say this has gone about as poorly for LSU as possible so far, right?

I'm sure Jay Johnson is on the horn with backup plans.

Portal gonna have to really work for us.
Yeah after today I think we’ll hear of another transfer or two.

I think Lansville also has a shot to be a weekend starter pretty early. He’s the one to watch now.

And he hasn't been taken yet. If he gets to State, I will be upset.

Novice here, which round does the money start to not be so enticing for these young kids?

Maybe we can pull Lansville?


I sure hope so. Kind of a bummer of a draft so far. Not including the guys who we never expected to keep/get to campus.

I don't think he's got the horsepower to be a high draft pick. Kid has tons of control with multiple pitches, but tops out at 90 at the moment.

ETA:

And an injury recently right? That always knocks em down a round or two.

Is there reason to think he’s going to be taken?

Random question; is Grant Fontenot related to Devin?

I don't know, but I do know 3 Fontenots that have no direct relation (I'm sure somewhere down the lineage maybe, but they don't know each other).

Mid 4th round around pick #116 drops below $500K. That is probabaly where it depends on family financial situation and desire to attend college.

Probably not.

I graduated high school with 65 people and there were like 7 unrelated Fontenots in my class.
