No other Vols in the 14th round

 

[VolFan_stuck_in_the_901]

Damn Padres!

I ****ing hate them

 

[Volgrandpa]

There were some whispers. I'd say Bargo is more likely than Reese and honestly I'd prefer Bargo. That utility is quite handy.

So much for the loyalty that CTV lectured everyone on last year.

 

[ALock4UT]

Will we get Appenzeller for 2 years or 3? Will he be a draft eligible sophomore?

I think Mike Wilson said 3 years.

 

[BloodOrange26]

Do we expect to still hit the portal post draft for any pitchers?

 

[VolFan_stuck_in_the_901]

It's a lot easier to be loyal when you have basically unlimited roster spots

[vol66]

BOOM!!!

 

[931Vol]

BOOM!!!

Tony is a maniac. Unbelievable

 

[VolFan_stuck_in_the_901]

Smart decision, young man

I am sure Bargo and Chapman will get taken late.

Bargo intrigues me though… feel like he has a higher number for MLB teams or he is coming back. Didn’t think he would last until the 16th round. He was on some Top100 draft lists. Those guys don’t last this long.

If Bargo wants to come back he will start. I am not sure you have a spot for Reese unfortunately because he is a great great kid.

If Peebles comes back, he will be the catcher. Wright will start in the OF somewhere, Blaine Brown didn't come here to sit either.

Newstrom and Levi can also play the OF. I don't think it would be a 100% guarantee that Bargo starts

Tony obviously loves Bargo but Bargo has now been recruited over. The numbers don’t make sense for him to return anymore. There are better options.

 

[Legion of Doom]

Huge news with Moore. Very nice surprise for Vols.

Bargo and Chappy have both been recruited over.... Peebles I'm not sure

Brown should focus on pitching. Kid throws 98 from the left side. That’ll take you a lot further in a professional career than being a good college hitter. Tennessee needs to treat him like LSU treated Skenes.
