Rujano has a scholarship to USF, so he might be a tough sign.
Peters grew 9 inches after high school and can touch 101.
Brandon Noriega was an MLB Draft camp guy with no shcool listed
hit 96 has a lefty.
Shane Marshall, P Georgia, has barely pitched but my 1 stuff+
model has the second best fastball in college.

Heh heh, Haydn McGeary, 15th rounder, hit 35 HR in 54 games this
year, for a D2 school in Mesa Colorado. Had a 1.640 OPS! Very
fun.

Reading up on Rujano…getting him to sign would be a grand slam…

19th rounder Brock Blatter from a Montana HS was BA's #401
overall prospect. He has a commitment to Alabama.

BA:
Blatter has had an unusual path as a high school prospect,
thanks mostly to being a Montana product. The state doesn’t have
high school baseball and because of that, Blatter has been
harder to scout than most. He pitched in Arizona and for the
Area Code Select Brewers this spring, where he mostly pitched in
the upper 80s, but also made his way to MLB’s Draft League
during the summer, where he initially struggled with control,
but started throwing a fastball in the 91-95 mph range. Blatter
is a 6-foot-6, 215-pound righthander with a great frame and
solid arm talent now. He has thrown two breaking balls, though
the slider is the better of the two and during the Draft League
it was a mid-80s pitch with spin in the 2,600-2,700-rpm range.
There are a few teams intrigued with Blatter’s size and
improving stuff and he would seemingly have plenty of projection
remaining as a cold weather arm who hasn’t pitched too
frequently. If teams are scared off the profile due to his
relative lack of history, Blatter could head to campus at
Alabama. He has a chance to be the first high school player
drafted out of Montana since righthander Gage Hinsz in 2014.
