Today is Monday - a prime off day in college baseball
✅I just received a call from a P4 - Recruiting Coordinator
“Cash - we need 2 more 27 arms, lefty / righty or 2 lefties, and we need dudes in the 28 class man - DUDES - coachable kids - kids who want to learn, develop, be sponges, embrace upper class players who have experience, remember ##### from a few years ago? Find me a few guys like him. Good family kids, “don’t have to worry about them on a Thursday in November,” kids who don’t act like they know more than me and just want to get better everyday.”
Will this coach look portal/juco - 100000% yes
His words “they’re our puzzle pieces, replacing drafted innings/AB’s, but our culture continues because of the HS kids we bring in.”
What do you need to see for RHP?
He said - “show me some velo as a 28 - 86-88 with rise or run, 2 pitches for strikes (BB:CH), and a kid who competes. I don’t want to show _#_#_# (PC) a kid who throws 87-90 but is 16BB’s through 13IP this spring in HS - strike throwers, competitors, able to control the run game, and show some fire/emotion on the mound”
How about SS prospects - what do you want to see?
He said - “ visible speed, laterally and hard 90…arm strength that carries - always appreciate it when you send us pregame I/O, and we want some physicality if they’re not a burner - so 175-180, good feet and frame -> confident approach at the plate, attacks early, doesn’t drop the hands every time a BB is thrown.”
How about catchers?
“We will definitely look portal for C - but 28 HS catchers we want to see athletes, blocking with confidence - even with no runners on, every pitch - every throw down should be in the air, 2.15-2.20’s on the bag work! vocal leaders who control the run game, need to see the commitment behind the plate first. Catch and throw matters so much at our level.”
