The first 2 rounds and compensation picks are today (Picks 1-74)

Rounds 3-10 are tomorrow, and 11-40 Saturday.

I don't think anyone related to A&M will go in today's picks, but should be a fun first few rounds tomorrow.

...and in the MLB.com pre-draft interviews they did with the family (they sent a camera crew to their home) little brother sported Aggie gear. Big brother sported TCU (he's committed), but it was nice to see a little Aggie recognition in the video as well.

What's the chance that the kolek brother that's committed to tcu will end up on campus? Thought I heard on the ticket this morning that he would be one of the top picks since he can hit 100mph

Tyler Kolek is projected to go in the top 3 picks tonight. Unless he pulls a Purke, there is no way he is going to TCU. Younger brother also throws hard, he may not see campus either.

Inside word regarding Larkin himself - he expects to go tonight.

Ray to the Royals in the 5th

At this point, I think it's safe to assume we will have the majority of our commitments on campus next year.

Jarvis gets selected by the White Sox in the 10th round. I would assume we see him play at A&M in the spring

Checked Jarvis's Twitter and he has already changed it to "A member of the White Sox organization" he's gone

Him signing wouldn't make that much sense to me. His slot value is "only" $150,000. If he came to campus and was marginally better than average, he could easily triple/quadruple that $150,000 bonus by the time he is a junior.

When his father has a net worth of roughly $1.5 billion, I'm guess money is about the furthest thing from his mind with the closest being getting his professional career started.

Cole Lankford 27-825
Turner Larkins 28-836
Johnny Manziel 28-837 San Diego

6'3" 215lbs DOB: 11/06/95 | Scouting videoAlthough Larkins doesn’t have the velocity many scouts look for in big high school pitchers, he makes up for it with incredible feel for pitching and an advanced three-pitch mix. Larkins’ fastball will sit around 90 mph, touching 92, with decent tailing action. His curveball has sharp, late break to it and has the potential to be an above-average pitch in the future. Larkins also shows good feel for his changeup which has good fade and deception to it. Larkins has great command of all three pitches and scouts praise his ability to add and subtract velocity from each pitch when necessary. Larkins’ lack of velocity makes him a very underrated pitcher and could make him a great value on Draft day.

George Maisto McLennon College 16-487

I belive this is Greg Maisto, a walkon at Texas A&M in 2013 who transferred to McLennon for the 2014 season.

" ... Redshirt freshman Greg Maisto, a left-handed pitcher from Southlake, is listed at No. 179 (Top 200 JUCO Prospects list.). Maisto transferred to McLennan from Texas A&M University this year and has signed with West Virginia University for next season. ..."

Little to no power with the bat? His upside would be the Adam Everett of CF.

With his speed and defensive skills I was certain a team would figure they can teach him to hit.

And Krey loves baseball. I am sure he is disappointed.
