The College season is going by very rapidly, and the draft will creep up now that opening day has passed. The top prospects have been featured nearly every time, with the inclusion of another star who has been impressive. Now that 2 months of College Baseball have flown by, I’d say the Angels’ best bet is a pitcher. I’m not sure who it could be, although I think it should be Arnold, Bremner, or Doyle, and while I’m at it, the Halos might draft Prager, for the second time. But what do I know, I’m not even an Angels fan, and now that I’ve said I think it will be a pitcher, it’ll probably end up being Ethan Holliday.
I have to admit, I’m getting some hope here. Jace might be starting to heat up. His last few weekend performances haven’t been too shabby, and I’m hoping his play continues to be better. He’s even got his average up around the .300 mark. It’s .296 to be exact. Which is only 9 ticks lower than it was last year. Now it’s time for his weekend stats. Friday: 2-4, RBI, BB, Sat: 1-3, 3BB, Sun: 0-2, 2BB. Jace is starting to heat up, and I hope that this continues. I have no clue why I like Jace so much; there’s just something about him that makes me want him to succeed.
Moving on to our first pitcher of the night Tyler Bremner didn’t have such a great outing this week. His stat line 3.2IP, 8Hits, 6R 5ER, BB, and 4Ks. This was Bremners worse start of the year so far and I’m making a strong educated guess that this will stay his worse start of the year because I think we all know how good Bremner is. The only thing that’s concerning is that his fastball is flat, in the future I’d like to see him work in 2seams to play off his nasty change up.
Staying on the Bump we have Florida States Ace, Jamie Arnold. Jamie has been doing very well this season and in my opinion If he keeps pitching how he has been he will most likely be the first pitcher off the board. Now that I’ve hyped up Jamie, lets talk about his outing this weekend. 4.2IP, 4hits, 2R, 4BB, 4Ks. I would have to imagine that Jamie’s pitch count was up in this game because I’m not sure why he got yanked so early. (And anyone feel free to correct me or fill me in down in the comments I wasn’t able to catch this game.) I’m sure Jamie will work his way into the 7th inning in his next start because that’s what he does, he gets outs, and is very good at it.
last but not least, Liam Doyle. Tennessee’s most exciting lefty. I don’t know why but this week just wasn’t great for the top pitching prospects across the country. Liam doyle didn’t do horrible, but he did give up 9 hits and surrendered 5 runs. The rest of his stat line, one BB and 11K’s. A very common theme with Doyle is no matter what this dude is going to strike people out. He knows it and we know it. This guy leads the SEC with 73 punchies in 36.2 innings. That’s 2 strikeouts an inning, absolutely absurd K numbers from Doyle. Looking forward to a better upcoming week from all of our guys.
Stay tuned for weekly updates on the best players in College!
