    Best hitter I have seen in college at any level for the past 3 years. One weekend I saw him go 14 for 16....and every ball was scorched

    Do you think this is high enough for him to sign or do you think he'll come back for his senior year at Catawba?

    I was surprised that Castellanos (Belmont Abbey) lasted until the 13th (I believe) and Sands at 25. In many cases, it's about what school you attend. Some of the names I saw before Jerry Sands couldn't carry his jock.

    I'll be disappointed if Castellanos does not make it to the show.

    Great family

    I am a betting man and I say he will return for another year and get his degree.

    Played against him the past two years and he should be in the top 10 rounds IMO. He has all the attributes of a great player and we all know he can swing it but his arm in the outfield is one of the top 3 arms I have ever seen.
