Nick Pogue is starting Game 1 Sunday.
Makes sense. In his last 23 innings, he’s only allowed 2 earned runs. He’s allowed 1 in his last 15 innings. He’s on fire right now. Let’s hope it continues today.
Nick Pogue is starting Game 1 Sunday.
Jordan Butler inserted in the lineup for Fabian to add punch to the offense. So what's he do his first time up? Strikes out looking with runners on 2nd & 3rd, 1 out. Dallas Baptist can swing the bats. Pogue's about done in the 4th, having given up 2 HR's in the inning and now a walk and 2 singles. We go from a 2-1 lead to a 4-2 deficit. O'Sullivan left him in too long because he has no faith in the bullpen. But Crisp now in. Not looking good. May need 10+ runs to win.
How many and what current players do you think will potentially go in the draft?I'm over this season. I'm ready to see which of our current players and high school commitments get drafted and sign pro contracts. Then we can look at the makeup of the team next year and see what it will look like.

Don't know why they have Dalton listed twice. I've heard other players than McConnell could be a late 1st round, early 2nd round pick and that Langworthy & Dalton will be much lower and may return for their senior years. We'll find out starting tonight. Also, 2 of our high school commits are expected to go early in the 1st round, so they won;t be on campus. Maybe a couple of more in the class go early enough to keep them out of Gainesville.
Thanx for posting Ocala, but what a head scratcher. I was told by many of the scouts at the games that as a position player, you have to have A plus in one of like 5 categories. I see no way Dalton gets drafted anywhere near the top. I feel the same about Langworthy, although I think Langworthy is a good baseball player, but does nothing exceptional. Dalton is an average player at best. McConnell will go high but I won;t be sorry to see him leave. I was underwhelmed by his defense. and whatta you know. a Dyson appearance in the last game and the guy looked like Nolan Ryan for 1 inning. The entire year he looked worse than Meg Ryan on the mound. what an arm, but what a head case?
I just looked at mlb.com/draft/2019 and McConnell and Dyson are the only 2 current Gators listed in the Top 200 prospects for tonight.
Brady McConnell taken with the 44th pick in the MLB draft by the KC Royals. That's the 3rd pick in the 2nd round. KC took a SS as the 2nd overall pick as well. Our top high school prospect, Riley Greene, was the 5th overall pick by the Tigers. However, LHP Hunter Barco, a projected Top 15 pick from Jax Bolles, had not been picked yet through the 2nd round. Maybe he got the word out that he's going to college?! No other Gators picked so far.
