Ragin' Cajuns await results of baseball draft

I wouldn't be surprised to see Mike picked between the 12th and 15th rounds today. He has the physical tools to play outfield, with good speed, a plus arm, and the power capacity to be a MLB hitter. He needs a lot of work on hitting off-speed pitching which the minor leagues could provide. Whether he would go for that slot monetarily would be the question, as he can always come back and still have a junior year to his advantage. As someone earlier suggested, I might look to move him to an outfield position next year if he stays in school.

Dude made an unassisted double play at third base...as a catcher. Even the pro's had to be like...OMG!!!

I remember the play but was too excited at the time to put the sequence together and actually realize how truly awesome it was.

And as awesome as it was, if he had been looking, he had a play at second as the runner was going there!

Can you say triple play.

Lucroy was drafted in the 3rd round. That was after his 3rd year.

I was thinking he went after senior year. That's right...

[RoarMan]

That is what I'm thinking. Probably around 25th round.

Did you just pull that out of your arse? He'll go way before the 25th. Unless, he's thrown a number out there and the teams know they can't sign him for what they're offering. Kind of like last year when, I think it was Rhymes, who was drafted in the 26th round.

All the talk in this thread has been about MS.. Any of you guru's have a guess as to where DK (can't even try to spell his last name) might go and any insight on his thinking? Good thread guys!!!!!!!!!

He is having offseason surgery so that may scare some teams away as he wouldn't be able to play until next year. Hopefully he wants to stay no matter what for a very special year next year

I think someone noted on here the other day that he has already told his teamates and coaches that he plans to stay for his senior year because he wants to get his degree.

Smart kid

if this is true and Dex is coming back, I am happy with whatever happens. I truely believe Dex is the best position player on the team. I want Strentz and Harrison back (I believe Harrison will be back), but Dex was the one I was most worried about all season long. I also think Compton will come back more like his Sophomore season then his Junior season next year.

Since we like to correct people......The play would have been scored 3-2 with the throw coming from Jace at 1B

3-2-2 if we are wanting to be completely correct.
