Only 70 picks have been made. They did not have 10-12 commits in the top 70. In fact, that 4 of their guys are already off the board is a little higher than some people were expecting.


I misread something and thought there had been 87 picks. I should have thought through the fact there hadn’t been that many supplementary and compensatory picks. Even at 70, there are prospect lists with 9 Arkansas signees in the Top 70. From the sounds of it, those guys continue not being selected. It’s entirely possible those prospects aren’t viewed as highly as the lists and will go soon. It’s also possible they have numbers no one is willing to match.

Arkansas about to top LSU 2022 class by a lot on paper at least.

Perfect game only ranks high school prospects, ignores JUCO and college, so if they are ranked #65 on PG, it wouldnt translate typically to being #65 in the draft, typically closer to double that when throw in college players.

The MLB.com Top 250 list would be more accurate because it ranks all draft eligible players

Any idea which teams might have more slot $$$ available to throw at Cam or other singees or is it too early to tell?

Going into today the Brewers, A's, and O's were some of the dangerous looking teams. Pirates too if they really did save $500k on slot with Skenes.

Still a ways to go, but 9 remaining of their Top 90 commits from PG which is impressive and beats our 6 of Top 65 I think it was.

I think 8. They said Adam Hachman took his name out of the draft.

As you now know, Tommy White is not draft eligible and Tre Morgan just got picked 88th overall in the 3rd round. White is back, Morgan is not.

Yeah Hachman had TJ surgery in April so he's going to Arkansas to redshirt year 1

Waiting for the coming to school tweets to start up.

Apparently A&M is getting Gavin Grahovac to campus, he's really good.

I keep telling myself “don’t get excited about Cam Johnson” but dammit it’s so hard not to. We’ve been screwed so many times with a team throwing a bag at a player at the last minute. Gotta hope he sticks with his high number

That kid was awesome. The Nationals are solidifying their future outfield.


They already had some studs from the Soto deal. Will be interesting to see what they do with them all. I know they’re thrilled to have Crews, but I bet they were really hoping Skenes fell to them.
