re: Mainieri recruiting

Personal experience with PG at Lakepoint here. The "meat" of the recruiting season is late June and almost all of July at Lakepoint. Cain is a fixture there throughout that whole time with AD popping in for certain players. Never saw PM there but did not see many other HC's either. Althoug...
Looks like Beck Way was a reliever at Belmont Abbey (NCAA Div. 2) since he had 0 starts, 3.98 ERA. NW Fla State had one of the best team ERAs last year so that should boost his skills nicely....
That means there is only 1 RHP coming in from the 2019 class - Abendroth. Big drop from what I think was 8 originally: Espino Phillips Lewis Wilhite Abendroth Scherer Hymel Pharris...
Which 2019 commits are not in summer league? Have not seen Wilhite's name but maybe I missed it....
Maybe he could. It would seem like a catcher could make the transition easily due to his quick reflexes but we don't see a lot of them switching over. My knowledge of Torres is that he is an all around baller - hits well, good defense, etc. so maybe he could switch. Guys like that find a place so...
Defensively, Torres and Milazzo are ahead of Travinski but of course he has that bat. Typically you would transition the extra catcher to 1B and Travinski has played that also so maybe Beloso will DH with Travinski at 1B. As for catcher, that will be a dogfight with Mathis, Garza, Torres and Milaz...
There are probably half a dozen current draft boards out there and all have solidified enough to have Espino as mid to late 20's pick, Mo Hampton in 30's and Rece Hinds not far behind that. That's late first round to starting second round range. At those slot values, highly unlikely we will see the...

I am hearing that 4-5 commits might take the draft, with 3 being almost certain....
I heard that it was because he was not throwing fast enough, as in his upper 80's needed to be low-mid 90's. That may be, but the kid still gets outs. Also one of the best defensive pitchers I have seen in Louisiana - seems to me the tigers could use someone that could hold runners. Crazy talk, I...
Yeah, this one is weird. PG has no data for him: no speed, tournament participation, etc. And it says he is from Acworth, GA which is near the Lakepoint complex where most of the big PG summer events are held. ...
My belief is that when players go to Perfect Game WWBA in Jupiter, FL the fall of their senior year, they are trying to increase their draft value since there are few schools there but a ton of pro scouts. Both Jimmy Lewis and Connor Phillips did that and did increase draft visibility/value. Lewis...
I get that he is currently draft eligible, but what kind of draft stock can he have with being injured for so long? Hasn't he been hurt basically since stepping on campus? Maybe it will turn around if he gets a few games in this season. I am wondering if, once healthy, he foregoes the draft and...
Scuba, just to confirm, these speeds are maximums right? Looks like White pitchers struggled mightily - 6H/5BB/3WP between them....
First time poster here. So be gentle. As Project mentioned, PG also released its top 300 2019 draft picks yesterday. Here is the breakdown of the 2019 commits and their respective slots overall: Daniel Espino, 10 Rece Hinds, 20 Maurice Hampton, 27 Jimmy Lewis, 85 Hayden Travinski, 104 Con...
