Ragin' Cajuns await results of baseball draft

[NewsCopy]

Draft day, and potentially decision day, is looming for three UL baseball players.

None of the three - redshirt sophomore catcher Michael Strentz of Comeaux High; junior right-fielder Dex Kjerstad of Amarillo, Texas; and red-shirt centerfielder Seth Harrison of Cypress, Texas - will be tapped when the first round of the Major League Baseball Draft unfolds today.

If Strentz is drafted in the first 10 rounds, the money will probably will be too good to pass up.

If Strentz is drafted in the first 10 rounds, the money will probably will be too good to pass up.

But it's not like the money won't be there next year when he is a junior, or better if he has another good season.

He isn't ready this year.

Strentz will still have junior year leverage next year. He should be going only if its a huge signing bonus

[raginsaints]

This year he has two years to leverage. It will help him set a higher asking price that he won't necessarily be able to ask for next year.

I bet he will go if he goes in the first ten.

I bet he will go if he goes in the first ten.

I don't think he will be drafted in the top 10 rounds. He is not a pro catch and at best is an average pro OF.

Dude is a great athlete. He'd do fine in the outfield.
