Looks like the Cubs have also signed Angel Gonzalez, a high
schooler out of Puerto Rico. He popped 94 MPH off the mound in a
showcase event last year.

Lowest ranked signing so far on BA’s list

BA:
Bradlee Beesley
Cal Poly OF
Notes:
Ht: 5-10 | Wt: 180 | B-T: R-R
Commit/Drafted: Never Drafted
Age At Draft: 22.3
Beesley started all four years at Cal Poly and hit well in the
Cape Cod League two years in a row while swinging a wood bat.
He’s an undersized contact hitter who sprays the ball around.
Beesley lacks power and could walk more, but he knows his game
and gets the bat to the ball. Beesley is a plus runner with an
above-average arm and plays an average center field. He has the
tools and mature instincts to play all three outfield positions

transfer who was off to a big spring before the season was cut
short. Four home runs in 16 games after three bombs as a junior.

BA:
Scott McKeon
Coastal Carolina SS
Notes:
Ht: 6-0 | Wt: 185 | B-T: R-R
Commit/Drafted: Tigers '19 (21)
Age At Draft: 22.6
McKeon began his career at Brunswick (N.C.) JC, where he led the
team in hitting with a .434 average as a freshman before hitting
.339 in his sophomore campaign. His hitting ability translated
just fine to Coastal Carolina and the Sun Belt Conference, as
McKeon managed a .344/.407/.500 line in 79 games over the 2019
and 2020 seasons. Teams were interested in McKeon last year—the
Tigers drafted him in the 21st round—but he returned to school
for his final season and would have been a priority senior sign
in the 5-10 round range in a normal year. Scouts see McKeon as a
solid defender at shortstop and think he can stick there but
have questions about whether his bat and offensive approach will
translate to the pro game

Glad we got him as a FA instead of the 2nd round. He sounds like
Donnie Dewees with a good arm.

Hopefully we land SS Christian Hernandez and Catcher Moises
Ballesteros as expected to round out this group of signees.
