UT's Sam Cozart is fun. 6-6" 230lb freshman, closer, deals nasty things to the plate 2IP, 0H, 0BB, 4K Game ****ing over. On to Omaha. eta:
Well, redshirt freshman, but still. He's a growing boy. Older brother, C out of NC State, was a 2nd round pick 2 years ago and is in AA with Cleveland.
Time for another mock, this time from Baseball America. Spoiler 17. A.J. Gracia, OF, Virginia 28. Cole Carlon, LHP, Arizona State
Gracia doesn’t really fit the profile Houston has been drawn to since Brown took over; he’s a bat-first prospect who lacks speed and is more of an on-base player than a power hitter. But he’d probably have one of the 2-3 best contact tools in the system. Carlson fits Houston’s profile as a guy who can get into the upper 90s with walk issues. But I can’t recall the last time Houston took a LHP in the top 2 rounds.
Ooof I guess my brain wiped Aiken from memory. Bogusevic is probably a good comp for Carlon. Carlon has played both ways. But Bogusevic was probably a better athlete than Carlon.
Saw ruger riojas pitch in that game last night . Good heat even after 100 pitches. Older prospect. Could be a fast mover . A quick look has him in the top 100 prospects .maybe the astros like him
