He should. Since he red-shirted, I believe he'd still have some leverage next year since he'd have another year of eligibility.

For some guys it's not about leverage or money. Some guys just hate school and will jump at their first chance to play pro ball.

Interesting take. You think McFarlane and Eskew are solid commits at their current draft projections? Any chance Veliz and/or McKendry return?

Today is just the top 2 rounds. Don’t see Veliz or McKendry coming back. You have zero leverage as a college senior. You’ll get considerably less money unless you’re a 1st rounder bc you have no choice but to take it

What was McKendry's velo during the end of the year? Have to think his midseason arm injury might have scared off some teams.

He has a ++ changeup but velo matters at the next level

Ya; was Suarez a sophomore eligible kid because of his age the year he decided to come back?

He was a redshirt soph and I believe he was 21 so to answer your question yes.

If I am reading their ages correctly, it looks like Cecconi, Vilar and Lala will be draft eligible as sophomores (but Gates and Del Castillo will not).
 
At the Wake Forest games, an employee of UM was saying that they expect Admitis to return next year. Teams have injury concerns about Admitis and he seemed to decline a bit after each of the two major injuries he endured. We should have even better batting next year, which should afford him even more opportunities to improve on this year's performance.

He hasn’t proved anything. He’s an average defensive catcher and an inconsistent bat. Hitting .270 once without elite intangibles isn’t gonna get you a whole lot of money

True, but draft eligible players have turned pro with worse credentials.
