Around SBN: Cal RB Jahvid Best Seriously Injured, Carted Off Field

Draft Primer: Rangers Draft Picks 31-50

31) Landry, Shon McNeese St U SS R/R 5'09" 175 1986-02-14 5S

-Signed-

http://forum.newbergreport.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=8614&p=159562#p159562

*Shon Landry batted a team-best .349 with five home runs and 33 RBI in a season shortened by a broken collarbone. Now healthy, Landry leaves Tuesday to join a Single-A short-season team in Spokane, Wash.

Landry broke the collarbone by running into a wall April 26 at Texas State. With the injury fully healed, Landry said he returned to hitting in a batting cage about a week ago.

"I'm 100 percent healed," said Landry, a first-team all-Southland Conference player this season.

 

32) Williams, Reggie Brooks-DeBartolo Collegiate HS (FL) CF S/R 6'04"190 1989-09-15 HS

      -Wants overslot to sign- Committed to U Miami

http://minormoosings.blogspot.com/2009/06/draft-day-3.html

Long and athletic at 6-foot-4, 190 pounds, Williams is a switch-hitter with speed, rating as a 70 runner on the 20-80 scale for most scouts.

He led the state of Florida with 59 steals this spring in just 20 games while hitting .604. Williams' bat will be the question, as he's drawn some Gary Matthews Jr. comparisons both physically and in terms of his future potential. He hasn't shown much present power despite being an older prep senior (he'll turn 20 in the fall) as he hit only one home run this spring.

Prince went to bed Wednesday and night and stuck his phone in the other room.

He had seven text messages and several voice mails when he woke up on Thursday at 9 a.m.

"I think everybody else found out before I did," the 2005 North Kitsap graduate said.

Prince hit .343 with seven home runs and 38 RBI this year at Washington State. It was his best season since his freshman season in which he led the Pac-10 in hitting and was named a freshman All-American. His sophomore and junior campaigns were complicated by a shoulder injury. Prince didn’t make an error patrolling the outfield — he made only one in his four years — as the Cougars finished second in the Pac-10 and advanced to postseason play for the first time in 19 years.

 

35) Butler, Timothy Greenbrier Christian Academy (VA) RHP R/R 6'02" 1751991-03-13 HS

-Committed to Radford

http://tiny.cc/8lS68 goes by Eddie Butler local kid here in Chesapeake that pitches for a powerhouse Virginia Independent School that is ranked as the #20 high school team by BA.

http://www.ruhighlanders.com/news/2008/12/2/BB_1202083854.aspx?path=baseball

Raccuia’s take – "Eddie has an electric arm and stuff, and we truly believe he has a chance to win a lot of games for us. We wanted a front-of-the-rotation guy, and I think he’ll be able to fill that role sooner than later."

• Member of the 2008 VISAA State Championship team (Division II) at Greenbrier Christian coached by Gary Lavelle.

• Nominated to play in the 2008 United States Scholar-Athlete Games.

• On the State-by-State Follow Draft List for Virginia by Perfect Game in 2008; Ranked the 17th-best prospect in Virginia by Perfect Game.

http://www.examiner.com/x-12483-St-Johns-Red-Storm-Examiner~y2009m5d31-Connecticut-player-of-the-year-favors-the-draft-over-St-Johns

Good Article: http://www.dailypress.com/sports/highschool/hc-hsfeat0527.artmay27,0,7327641.story

There's no confusion about where Carasiti wants to pitch this summer. "I want to sign with a pro team," he said. "I've had that dream since I was little."

Where he ends up depends on where he gets drafted. "The earlier the better, obviously, but the cutoff round for me probably is the sixth," Carasiti said. Said Jim Carasiti: "Scouts ask, 'What will it take for Matt to sign?' It's like a chess game. We just have to wait to see how it plays out."

Carasiti throws a four-seam, two-seam and split-fingered fastball, a changeup and a slider. He says half his strikeouts have been with his splitter as he looks to lead Berlin on a long run next month in the Class L tournament.

 

37) Nading, Charles U Nevada Las Vegas RHP R/R 6'06" 220 1987-07-09 SO

* Jason Cole: Just got off the phone with Nading and it sounds like there's a decent chance that he'll sign. He's very very raw, but he's 6-foot-6 and has a good fastball.

PG: from back when he committed to OSU

This year’s top "Out of State" prospect is RHP Chad Nading, a 6-5, 190 lb right handed pitcher from Anchorage, Alaska who has signed with West Coast power Oregon State. Nading is the most heralded baseball prospect to come out of Alaska in memory and his presence in Cedar Rapids this weekend is a testament to how serious he is about his baseball future.

He’s a big kid, if nothing else. he is only a sophomore due to his transferring around, so he’s got eligibility left.

 

38) Hutting, Anthony Tesoro HS (CA) OF L/L 6'00" 185 1991-04-07 HS

39) Henry, Jabari Olympia HS (FL) RF R/R 6'00" 198 1990-11-11 HS

-Committed to Florida International University

http://www.pgcrosschecker.com/Articles/DisplayArticle.aspx?article=586

The tool that stands out the most for Henry is the bat. Henry has above average power in a very compact swing. In the opening game of the High School season, Henry took a Steven Ewing (listed above) offering deep to center field for the only run in his teams 1-0 win. He has shown an ability to hit top level hitting and will be watched extremely closely over the next few months. Jabari profiles at the next level as a power hitting left-fielder.

Perfect Game’s 23rd ranked player in the state of Florida...124th ranked player in the nation...projected as a top-10 round pick in the 2009 MLB Draft.

 

40) Vail, Taylor Cabrillo Col 3B L/R 6'02" 200 1986-09-05 J1

-Signed-

http://www.santacruzsentinel.com/sports/ci_12576443

"You look at his swing and you can see there's something there," said Butch Metzger, the Rangers' NorCal scout. "Then you talk to the guy and go, Jesus, he's 22. What are we going to do with this guy? As a scout you have to convince people making the decisions to do something there. Fortunately, we were able to draft him and have a place for him. He's going to get into a situation where he can get lots of at-bats, and if he does well, because of his age, they'll push him along."

 

41) Garrett, Forrest Norcross HS (GA) LHP L/L 6'02" 168 1990-09-24 HS

-Wants overslot to sign- Committed to LSU

http://www.perfectgame.org/players/playerprofile.aspx?ID=112668

Forrest Garrett is a 2009 LHP with a 6'3'', 180 lb. frame from Norcross, GA. Garrett has a very projectable build to go with his already outstanding current ability. He has good effortless arm speed and he pitches in the high 80's to low 90's with command. He uses a 3/4 arm angle, with good arm speed and his velo comes easy for him. He has an outstanding change up which might have been the best change at the National. He also has a very good curveball. Very good pitchability and projects large. Very interesting 2009 lefty, one of the best in the nation.

 

 

42) Zagarac, Shane St Joseph's Col LHP L/L 6'03" 225 1985-08-15 SR

-Signed-

* The left-handed pitcher recently completed his senior season at St. Joseph’s College of Indiana where he went 5-4 with a 4.09 ERA in 11 starts for the Pumas. Zegarac led St. Joseph’s and was fifth in the GLVC in strikeouts with 72 in just 61.2 innings. A durable pitcher, Zegarac tossed three complete games with two shutouts.

 

43) Bonadonna, Joseph U Illinois Champaign CF R/R 5'08" 170 1985-09-06 5S

-Signed-

http://www.fightingillini.com/sports/m-basebl/mtt/bonadonna_joe00.html

 

44) Christman, Tyler U South Carolina Sumter RHP R/R 6'02" 180 1989-08-26 J1

-Draft and Follow this Summer- 

http://njcaa.org/colleges_college_stats.cfm?sid=7&collegeid=1779&category=Stats&slid=3

http://www.theitem.com/article/20090612/ITSPORTS01/706129982/-1/ITSPORTS

"They’re doing a draft-and-follow on me," said the former Sumter High School and Sumter P-15’s standout. "They’re going to watch me over the summer and see how I do. They have until August to sign me."

Christman said he has no idea what he is going to do at this time. He is going to see how things shake out in regards to how many drafted players the Rangers sign.

"I know they drafted a lot of pitchers," he said. "If, say, 10 of those don’t sign, that could open up some more money for me. It could be soon or it could be in August."

 

45) Anderson, Dale Col Southern Idaho C R/R 6'01" 215 1990-05-02 J1

Video: http://mlb.mlb.com/media/video.jsp?topic_id=4961152&content_id=4674533

 

46) Grundy, Jerad Johnsburg HS (IL) LHP L/L 5'11" 180 1990-09-11 HS

http://mlb.mlb.com/media/video.jsp?topic_id=4961152&content_id=4757981

http://forum.newbergreport.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=8614&p=159562#p159562

*The Texas Rangers selected Grundy in the 46th round, much later than anticipated going into the draft. Grundy, a 6-foot left-hander who throws in the low 90 mph range, signed with Miami (Fla.) in November, so many teams did not use an early pick because they thought he would not sign.

"All the scouts knew it was going to be hard for me to back out of Miami," Grundy said. "Scouts categorized me as an ‘extremely tough sign.’ "

With an 80 percent scholarship to Miami, one of the nation’s elite programs, Grundy likely will not sign.

"I learned a lot about the process for next time if I don’t sign now," Grundy said. "Now I know how everything works and how to handle it."

 

47) Higgins, Tyler Mt Pleasant HS (MI) RHP R/R 6'02" 1991-04-22 HS

-Committed to Michigan

http://www.themorningsun.com/articles/2009/06/12/sports/preps/srv0000005574398.txt

"We were all paying attention to the draft on the computer and when my name came up everyone started cheering," Higgins said. "It was a great feeling to get drafted by a professional team. I didn't really care where I went, but for now I am a Texas Rangers fan."

 

48) Frenzel, Cole Dickinson HS (ND) 3B L/R 6'02" 1990-03-13 HS

-Committed to Arizona U

From PG: Frenzel was a big surprise at this event. He has good arm strength (91 from OF) and good raw power at the plate. He received National Showcase invite from performance at SS West.

http://www.perfectgame.org/players/playerprofile.aspx?ID=7960&AspxAutoDetectCookieSupport=1

Also PG: Cole Frenzel is a 2009 SS/3B with a 6'2'', 205 lb. frame from Dickinson, ND. Frenzel showed good hands in the infield and a strong arm. He has a strong LH bat and projects very well. He has good strength in his swing and shows good power potential. Interesting bat to watch as he continues to develop. He has signed with Arizona.

http://www.baseballamerica.com/today/prospects/ask-ba/2009/268051.html

Frenzel likely will become the 14th player to be drafted out of North Dakota, and he could go earlier than Elgie did. But he probably won't get picked high enough or draw enough of a bonus offer to make it worthwhile to pass up college. Major league teams figure to let him develop for three years with the Wildcats before making a run at him in 2012.

* From everything I’ve read he has top five round talent but seems pretty dead set on attending college. He’ll play 3B at Arizona and should be a big time slugger when he’s draft eligible again. I don’t think there’s a way in the world he signs unless Texas offers seven figures and in this economy with the other selections taken before him that won’t happen. Too bad he’s a great hitter.

 

49) Kendrick, Catlan Northgate HS (GA) RHP R/R 6'04" 180 1991-06-24 HS

-Committed to Kennesaw State U

http://www.eastcoastgrays.org/

Cat played with the Grays last year at Coastal Carolina, East Cobb and Jupiter. He is very projectable at the pro level due to his size and how loose his arm was. In Jupiter, he carved up a strong Central Florida Renegades team for 3 innings where he was 89-91 on the gun with a good slider and an unhittable split. When he fills out in his frame and gets a little stronger, there is no telling how high his ceiling will be. Cat will play with the Grays 18u team this summer while the Rangers follow his progress at Coastal Carolina (6-/25-6/28) and the WWBA 18u at East Cobb (6/30-7/6).

http://ksuowls.cstv.com/sports/m-basebl/spec-rel/120208aac.html

"Catlan has a great arm and body and throws in the low 90's. He has a tremendous upside and great character."

http://www.times-herald.com/sports/Kendrick-latest-of-Northgate-s--No--13--draftees-67868

 

50) Melendez, Ronald Cowley County CC CF R/R 5'10" 170 1989-09-29 J1

http://www.cowleytigers.com/baseball/baseballstats/StatsOffensive.htm

Melendez, a freshman from Jacksonville, FL, batted .367 with four home runs, 14 doubles, and 38 RBI. Melendez also stole 18 bases and scored 51 runs in 59 games.

So where do we stand?

Seven have signed: Sierra (6), Tullis (8), DiFazio (12), Brown (22), Lima (23), Landry (31), and Vail (40).

Six, Matlock (21), Castner (26), Rhoad (33), Prince (34), Zagarac (42), and Bonadonna (43) are all seniors. Unless they have jobs lined up I expect at least five of them to sign. In this economy, take the money and a job at least for a year. Then if you can’t hack it you’ll said you played minor league ball and can job search in hopefully a better market. Not to mention some of these guys might want to coach or scout.

These five, Mendonca (2), Erlin (3), Doyle (4), Gunter (11), and Nading (37) have indicated through a variety of ways that they will sign or are very likely to do so.

That brings our total up to at least 16.

The next group includes Lemke (10), Bell (14), Boyd (19), Cooper (25), Law (28), Christman (44), and Kendrick (49) have all been told they are draft and follows. Do well this summer and a legitimate offer will come along.

Personally I think at least three of them sign. Bell, Law and Christman are most likely. I’d love to see Boyd and Kendrick too.

For these purposes though I’ll say three sign bringing the total up to 19.

Scheppers will get a fair offer and I can’t imagine he turns down two million dollars to go play Indy ball again. Purke will take a while but he’ll also be shown the money. How much may affect some others who are being followed or high school kids they’re high on. That’s 21.

Cole is pretty sure McBride will sign. Blash used baseball to go to college in the states. As a VI kid he’ll take the money and the promise to pay for college. I don’t see him going back to JC when he can avoid it. That’s 23 on my personal count.

Breaking this into two posts for easier reading

Here’s where it gets interesting. The next list is guys who have commitments to major D1 baseball schools. Lane (7 Oregon), Strong (17 UC Irvine), Cooper (25 @Florida), Barrett (27 @Mississippi), Watson (29 Mississippi State), Williams (31 Miami), Hutting (38 Cal State Fullerton), Garrett (41 LSU), Grundy (46 Miami), Frenzel (48 Arizona) Eight are HS guys and the two with @ signs are already draft eligible at their respective universities. Other than Barrett, who supposedly was very dissapointed with where he was drafted and will probably go back to U Miss for his senior season, maybe Watson signs. Though to hear scouts tell it we should be happy if he doesn’t. I don’t think any of these guys sign.

The next group are also high school guys but not at name baseball universities. Jamieson (13 Ohio State), Revell (16 Chipola JC), Schaaf (18 St. Peters College NJ), Werniuk (20 Lemoyne), Blackwell (24 Kansas), Butler (35 Radford), Carasiti (36 St. Johns U), Henry (39 Florida International U), and Higgins (47 Michigan).

First and last Jamieson and Higgins are signed to in state Big 10 schools. Neither is a college baseball factory but at least a partial ride to the home state school may be hard to overcome. 50/50 odds. I wouldn’t be surprised either way but obviously Higgins would have to be offered well above 47th round money. Count me as doubtful for either, unfortunately.

Revell is very interesting. He was committed to FSU then backed out and is now going the JC route. He could go to school for a year to drive up his draft stock. He could also take an above slot offer from the Rangers and start his baseball career now. Given the utter dirth of 3B options in our minor leagues I expect he’ll get a very respectable deal put on the table. Then it’s just a matter of how much he thinks he’s worth. If they show Revell the money this could be a very interesting draft class.

Shaaf, Weriunk, Butler, and Carasiti are all committed to private colleges/universities. Carasiti has already said he wants at least 6th round money to be bought out of St. Johns. It will depend on how they value the price of their educations. Of these guys I really hope Butler and Crasiti are shown the money but I don’t think more than one signs with Shaaf and Weriunk being the most obvious to do so.

Blackwell is from League City and wants to play ball. I think the Rangers work out a deal with him. His offer from Kansas can be bought out as long as we also promise to pay for four years of college. Henry the FIU guy, well who the heck knows. His money may come down to how much money they’re offerering everyone else.

That leaves Campbell (15), Fogle (30), Anderson (45) and Melendez (50) as JC guys I have no idea about.

I think they sign 25 guys minimum. If the numbers increase from there the Rangers have spent money in this draft and some of these high upside HS guys have been bought out. If the numbers get to 30 or so then talk about how deep this farm system is will be understatements.

Is there a middle infield prospect tucked away anywhere in this draft?

Lima and Landry are SS's

but they’re 22 and 23. Revell looks agile, but I doubt enough to be a MIF.

So … no.

Forrest Garret

sounds like a steal if we can get him signed, I see why some people tabbed him as their sleeper. I am really pulling for JD an Co to get Strong, Revell, Williams, and Carsati signed out of the maybes, along with Garret.

I pretty much

discounted anyone at a major D1 baseball school. I just don’t see the Rangers who are already having problems finding innings for all their prospects paying out major money to buy those kids. Doesn’t mean they aren’t great talents. And it doesn’t mean it’s not possible, but color me skeptical.

Personally I’m really rooting for them to make a good run at Carasiti, Blackwell, Butler, Boyd, and Higgins, as far as high school guys go. The more I read about Christman and Law says sign those two jucos as well. I also think Revell is very doable especially as he plays third base. The more Whittleman and West struggle the bigger the need to find at least one other 3B besides Mendonca.

We’ll have to see how things go, but it should be an interesting summer. I think several of these kids will be late signs so the Rangers can determine who they keep and who they’ll release this fall/winter.

by Hull Fan on Jun 14, 2009 11:03 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Well you only hope that you might

be able to snag 2 of the elite HS pitchers out of the 14 or so that they drafted after the 10th. If you succeed you’ve got a couple of potential 1st rounders in three years for 3/4rd money. That is a success in my book. I’m not so sold on Strong or Lemke over and above any of the other HS arms. I too like Garrett and Carasiti but I also like Law (his JR yr), Watson, Schaaf, Warmiuk, and possibly Blackwell. Any of them you would do an awkward JD high five over. My sleeper though is Catlan Kendrick, who throws an unhittable splitter. As for the hitters, I think Williams and Revell seem signable, but I think I like 3B Cole Fenzel better than Revell and like Jabari Henry as a power hitting LF (normally I don’t like drafting LF but if they project for AA power, ok) over this Cooper kid who seems boom or bust with not a lot of track record as a baseball player.

I count it as an A++ draft if we get 2 Jabaris, a Forrest, and a Catlan.

Go ye forth and read mingjungtc's draft goodness

Where and how he has time to come across all this stuff I don’t know but here’s some updates on Blash, Law, Lane, Prince and Barrett. It’s worth a read for sure.

The latest update

If you aren’t visiting Goyo’s Minor Moosings , you really should.

So where do we stand. Gunter has shown up on the Spokane roster so it’s safe to say he’s signed. Reportedly Doyle will appear in the next few days, which brings our total numbers to…

Signed so far 17: Doyle (4), Sierra (6), Lane (7), Tullis (8), Gunter (11), DiFazio (12), Jamison (13), Campbell (15), Matlock (21), Brown (22), Lima (23), Castner (26), Landry (31), Rhoad (33), Prince (34), Zagarac (42), and Bonadonna (43).

Lane surprised the heck out of me, but in a really good way. According to the aforementioned Goyo, the BA Draft Database has these players respective signing bonus’ as:

6 – Ruben Sierra, 125k
7 – Braxton Lane, 125k
8 – Tullis, 90k

That’s a really, really good thing. Last year Texas spent 600k to buy out Matt Thompson. The fact that Lane came in at basically slot means there’s more money for someone else. They may have budgeted that amount of money for Lane all along or maybe they’ve saved some money here and now can add some extra money to other players they are high on but need to compromise upward as far as bonus demands.

I’d like to think that there is now an additional 50k here or 100k there for kids like Boyd, Revell, and Blackwell, to name a few. But regardless that pick goes from suspect head scratcher to wow, that could be a really good sign in a couple of years.

I know everyone wants to hear movement on Purke and Scheppers but getting some of these other guys signed can be just as important.

by Hull Fan on Jun 20, 2009 1:32 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

+1

I know everyone gets excited for scheppers and purke, but I kind of think of them as good to go. Yes the negotiations will take a while and we may not even see one or both of them this year, but I for one get excited about the late round high school guys. I dont like to see guys we draft and dont sign become barry zito, anthony ranaudo, drew pomeranz, kevin keyes,, harold martinez, etc and think what they could have been in our system.

Doyle

Is there a link to his signing?

Official no

but I’ve read in several places that he will sign and soon appear on a roster. I’d be very surprised if he’s not there by next Monday. By his own words in various news accounts, plus Cole’s interview they’re probably just haggling over issues like paying for the rest of his college and the like. He’s all but a done deal.

No

Jason Cole did an interview with him (free I think) in which he said that he was going to sign…

Your quote ...
I would expect to see 4th round JR RHP Tony Doyle added to the roster shortly as he has reportedly already signed.

What’s your source that he had signed?

by shroomer on Jun 22, 2009 7:55 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

I don't remember where I saw the article

but I swear there’s one floating the interwebs that has quotes from Doyle about how excited he is to work with Nolan and get going on his baseball career. As a 4th round pick and a junior is college I’d be shocked if he doesn’t sign.

I can’t speak for Goyo and whether he ran across something else but like I said above I expect him to show up on a roster soon.

and the last line in Jason Cole’s interview w/him is: “my signability is very good.”

I just figured GG had been snooping at Doyle’s Myspace page or Facebook or something and read that the kid had signed. So I guess he hasn’t signed.

Some Algerian guy

This is from today's Denton Record Chronicle Police Blotter ...
A 20-yr-old woman told police she was swindled out of about $2000 Saturday after she tried to purchase a Siberian husky puppy over the internet from Nigeria., according to a police report. The woman sent four separate wire transfers and said she still hasn’t received the puppy.

No lie.

Wow.

Just, wow. She really should have just wired money to a Nigerian animal shelter.
