Interesting that the Cubs passed on Jackson Wiggens' brother
Carson Wiggens. Some scouts had him rated higher than Jackson.

Carson thrown 14 innings in college and is coming off an
internal brace surgery. The family might be kinda injury prone.

Law on Townsand
Cade Townsend was in my top 10 at one point this spring, when
his stuff was at its peak — up to 98 mph with huge carry atop a
five-pitch mix that arguably had two more plus pitches in the
splitter and cutter. He’s a little undersized and faded as the
season progressed, getting hit harder in SEC play (and still
getting worked hard, throwing 115 pitches in five innings in the
regional), which led to him dropping to the back of the first
round. If healthy, it’s premium stuff in a lower innings total,
which adds up to more of a mid-rotation guy who might look like
a top-of-the-rotation guy in his best outings

I live in the south now, so I spell in a southern accent.

To be fair, he spelled it the way many pronounce it…

After taking a pitcher, the Cubs went after home run hitters.
OF Caden Sorrell and 1B Miles Bailey.

Both of Sorrell’s grandfathers played MLB. One of them shares
his 1966 rookie card with Fergie Jenkins.
