All Done. Labas is a free agent now. As well as anybody else who was not picked

And that's a wrap. It always goes fast on day 3, but that was a lightning last 10 rounds.

Good day for the good guys.

Definitely. I think he easily gets drafted if he intended to sign with anyone who would have taken him today. Should be back.

LSU returns every hitter in the lineup (who they want to) besides Arnold.

Reminds me of Tennessee this year who brought almost every player back.

We had 2 players on our roster get drafted, that seems super low for LSU.

And a good crop of pitchers, supplemented by high school, juco, and portal arms.

Plus, added Berry and McManus.

And, they're not done yet...

Yeah, youth had a lot to do with that. And Fontenot deciding to return kept him from surely being drafted. I know we didn't get an announcement from Dugas, but he must have told teams today not to bother drafting him. No way his numbers get ignored entirely, no matter what concerns teams have about his lack of a true position.

Different type of draft and rules, and different minor league structure. There were a few who would have been picked in the mid to late rounds if they were open to signing.

So is Labas back since he didn’t get drafted?

I would say he's 75% likely to sign a free agent deal. I'm in the minority, but I'd come back if my stock couldn't get any lower and I had a chance to win a natty and increase my stock - can always just go through the process again next year, with a ring on your finger.

Yeah, I think if it were me, I'd come back for another run at LSU, because he's not getting anything close to life changing money as an undrafted free agent. But then, he wasn't going to get that kind of money if he had been drafted in the 20th round, either, which is why it sounds to me like he just wants to move on. I can't say I understand it, but to each their own.

How much are free agent deals in the MOb worth?

I dont Think I’d leave LSU for teacher money.

I think Johnson said that Labas is basically gone
