While you guys were watching Stanford lose I watched one of the most impressive pitching performances ever. Kumar Rocker has MLB ready stuff and he’s a freshman. I hope Vandy and Stanford make the CWS and we see this kid a couple more times. He is not Walter Johnson yet but especially in this era of coddling kids like infants he threw 131 pitches and struck out 19. He is already better than anybody on the Giants staff. It will be interesting to see how he develops. The three year wait to be drafted has been mandated by his family and I usually agree with it. Not this time but I’m old and hope I’m still around to see him in a Giants uni, assuming they suck as much in two years.

Fortunately he won't throw 200 innings a year for the next 2 years, so he should have some arm left.  Phogge, do you think MadBum is done, i.e. ordinary now?
