Showing Gasparino the exit door = less strikeouts.

Re: Riojas over Flores, Schloss subscribes to the philosophy of giving the veteran a chance. If he swims, great. If he sinks, he's got a more talented youngster ready... and, crucially, that youngster is seen as a (potential) solution to the subpar performance they'd been getting from the vet, rather than having to deal with fan and locker room expectations out of the gate as The Guy). I think this philosophy is absolutely the way to go for multiple reasons. Personally, I will be surprised if Riojas is still a top 3 starter for us come postseason time. But if he is, he'll have found more consistency and have earned it. If not, we have a stable of other options (with Grubbs setting a high floor, and Flores — or even Cozart or Crossland — raising a high ceiling).

Correct on the graphic—home states, not college commitments. I find it hard to get excited about baseball HS class rankings until after the draft signing period, but that's the jilted fan PTSD talking and it's better than not having top guys interested in your program. "Better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all"?! 😂

And now DeMarco Murray is gone...

I think that’s just the state they are from when it says Texas But we do have commitments from Grady Emerson #1 and Beau Peterson #15 (Kansas) I think PG ranks us around #3 or #4 HS class LSU is #1 @Blake Munroe

Interesting — I hadn't made the connection between his hand injury and his defensive development. But duh, haha! I am still not sold that he can hold down short: not just hands and arm strength (potential hand injury impacts) but athleticism and feel and command. I feel Beccera is better there, but you make accommodations for your stars and give him a chance to grow into an even better draft eval.

Man Notre Dame, Oregon and USC are not teams you want to battle in recruiting for Pacific Islanders from the West Coast. Only teams missing are Utah and BYU.

Spurs had beaten OKC when they were full strength at OKC

Not really my brothers are 4, 8 and 12 years younger than me.

KJ is listed at 6'0, not a lot of difference. Long as it's not a Diego Pavia 6' or 5'11

Tech and Lubbock have very little brand appeal. They will struggle with real NIL

Updated perfect game rankings. The Texas class is sick! 5 of the top 25. just need a few to actually go to school.

So in other words, at least $32M in football NIL. Likely more given the last bullet. It’s been reported elsewhere that Texas will be somewhere between $35 and 40 million.

Wow he's the brother of Ty Simpson? That's a huge age gap.

To the one that has the clearest pee because he's the best teammate.

Not if it was up to Bohls

That’s weird. It’s a fairly common name. Nothing too unique about it. 🤣

Probably a loft issue

Sellers was really bad last year.

Early for Texas to be so serious! 🤔

I was thinking this too. I definitely didn’t expect Ruger to be the Friday night guy but I think he is capable especially with, what should be an improved and deeper pen. We could also see changes in the rotation over the next 3-4 weeks.
