Wow, wonder how he recovers. Any lingering effects could knock him down in the draft.

Ughh, UCLA Friday started Gavin Brooks is out this weekend with a blister and freshman Rob Rasmussen is out for 2 months after breaking his foot when hit by a line drive in his NCAA debut.

 

And I just found out I went to HS with Rob's older sister. Strange.

South Carolina SS Reese Havens coming out of of HS was a big time prospect, but his first two years at Carolina was a bit of a disappointment, but his year has been on fire. I really feel like he can get himself elevated to a first round pick, and I would love for the Cubs to take him with their first round pick because I feel as if SS is a need. What do you guys think?

Nice mini writeup by CJ on the Brewerfa.net boards:

http://brewersfandemonium.yuku.com/topic/8874/t/2008-College-Resource-Thread.html?page=4

Gordon Beckham

By far the star of the day. I checked some of my notes from when I watched him play in the Cape all-star game in addition to watching some video of him taking BP. The bat speed is clearly there, and he has legit power despite being a smaller player. By smaller I just mean shorter, as he's sub-6', but he's put together really well.

 

Anyway, I name I wrote next to Beckham's name from last summer was Ryan Braun, and I reminded myself of why I did that this evening because physically they're nothing alike. With his bat speed he also has a knack for keeping the big part of the bat in the strike zone for a long time, giving him that extra power from a smaller frame and seemingly effortless swing. He also carries an obvious swagger about the way he does things, and his confidence borderlines cockiness.

 

His first HR came on a belt-high FB that he turned on so quickly and yanked to left. The second was on a hanging thigh-high slider that he crushed to deep CF (a ball that just kept carrying). His third hit was on an outside slider that he pulled up the middle for a single.

 

The defensive plays were equally impressive. The first came when he ranged deep up the middle to his left, picked a ball I thought would easily make CF, and in one motion scooped it to the second baseman to begin a 6-4-3 double play.

 

The second play wasn't as impressive but it still showed off his defensive prowess. On a slow dribbler to SS he charged the ball, picked it and quickly made the throw to first to get a speedy Oregon State runner (Joey Wong IIRC), showing both his quickness and his arm strength, and well as his transfer.

 

The third was the best. On a weak little chopper to the second base side, Beckham charged hard (with the second baseman playing deep and towerds the 2B bag), barehanded the ball on the 2B side and in one motion threw out the runner. No question, Gordon Beckham is an incredibly exciting player to watch, and only reinforces my thought that he's a huge sleeper to go in the top 10 come June.

Aaron Crow is good. Very good. Granted it was only Toledo, but I don't think an outfielder was even used after the 4th inning or so. Complete game shutout, and from our count he had around 10 K's, no walks.

 

EDIT: Here's the final line.

 

9 IP, 0 R, 7 H(2 bunt singles), 15/0 K/BB, 9/0 GB/FB, 107 pitches(87 strikes)

 

And he picked a guy off first.

I spied the TT appearance from the press box.

 

Crow was filthy tonight. When he k'ed the side in the 8th I was amazed at how loud the stadium got with just around 600-700 people there. I could watch him pitch every day.

Another ridiculous performance from Crow yesterday, this time against #14 Baylor. 9 IP, 0 R, 3 H, 10/3 K/BB, 11/3 GB/FB, 109 pitches

 

Mizzou's weekend rotation is just ridiculous. Crow, Berger, and Gibson are gonna win a ton of games this year. Berger today goes 7 innings of one hit ball as MU beats Baylor 3-0. I also read that in over 300 Big 12 games, Baylor has been shut out 4 times now. Two have happened this weekend.
