30th round almost over. Probably a short break after this round, then just 10 more rounds to go.

Another update, leaving DiGiacomo in there for now

By my count for 2018-2019 roster:
- Turang drafted in 1st, expected to sign
- Kelly drafted in 8th round, expected to sign
- Bush drafted in 8th round, expected to sign
- Sanders drafted in 12th round, expected to sign
- Feduccia drafted in 12th round, expected to sign

- Caball drafted in 14th round, not sure if he will sign, shouldn't be much money there from Brewers
- Slaughter drafted 18th round, I would believe he sticks around for his junior year and still have leverage
- Duplantis drafted 19th round, unsure if he will sign
- DiGiacomo drafted 29th round, unsure if he will sign but likely to come to school

Current Roster Outlook:
(1) SR. OF Antoine Duplantis
(2) SR. INF Brandt Broussard
(3) SR. INF Chris Reid
(4) SR. INF Bryce Jordan

(7) SR. RHP Caleb Gilbert
(8) SR. LHP Brandon Nowak

(21) SO. OF Nick Webre
(22) SO. RHP AJ Labas
(23) SO. RHP Devin Fontenot
(24) SO. RHP Trent Vietmeier
(25) SO. RHP Ma'Khail Hilliard
(26) SO. LHP John Kodros

Mathis and Garza will be Sophs fwiw. They are one year juco players.

DiGiacomo isn't going anywhere.

I really think Cabell, Duplantis, & Slaughter are the only guys we have to worry about. Maybe Willis as well, but I'm assuming he comes here.

Watson should be embarrassed not being drafted yet.

I thought willis would go in the top 20. I don't really have any reason to think he won't be at LSU now.

He probably put out he was definitely not signing if drafted out of the first 3 or 4 rounds

Someone would drop a line on him. The later part of the draft is throwaway for the most part.

At this point though, he's probably already had those conversations with teams, so the know it's a waste.

I mean, right now you're seeing a bunch of guys being picked just to fill out the short season rosters.

But if they know he won't sign for what they can offer him, it's a wasted pick.

The Boat is a well-known ignorant poster. Worse than Peej according to some.

Willis has a chance to start at C next year. It would be beyond stupid to go the JUCO route.

After doing a little digging, it appears HS players picked in rounds 11-30 are signed ~50% of the time.

That's higher than I would have imagined.

Eh. If he's already highly thought of, he could be thinking that Catchers don't have the longest careers and wants to start it earlier.

But I digress.
