I hope he gets drafted.  I had seen he was doing okay this summer and thought he might be turning a corner to become more reliable and getting more pitching time next year.  Good luck to him.

I don't know for certain, but I'd venture a guess that he's been told where he's likely to go and which clubs are interested.
