[Cassavell] The Padres drafted 6-foot-8 lefty Kruz Schoolcraft out of high school in Oregon at No. 25 overall. It’s the ninth straight Draft in which they’ve used their first rounder on a high-school player.

He was in a recent Pitching Ninja video. He’s got some nasty stuff and said he’s focusing on pitching and not 1B anymore 🤞
6’8″ highschooler? Man, they’ve got something different in the water these days!
Looks like we got the next Randy Johnson!!
In all seriousness, Kruz Schoolcraft is easily a 99th percentile name in all of baseball. Already a fan.
He’d look good in a White Sox, Red Sox or Braves jersey 🤔
Also makes it another lefty. Dylan Lesko is the only non-lefty we have drafted in the first round since 2016. (Batter or Pitcher)

OOTP 2 way LEGEND. Super excited for this pick, tall lefty with power and potentially high 90s velo.
Peak lefty name

Lotta upside on this kid for pick 25. That’s pretty good.
This kid was Commited to Tennessee an SEC school that’s has a very strong great program They see something in this kid. Espicaly witht the Talent coming out of that school Ben Joyce Christian Moore for example.
I watched a few videos of the kid. He throws hard without much effort and he has room to put on weight. I can see him throwing 100 consistently in a few years.
How many of the 9 are pitching for us today
Is he still gonna go to Tennessee?
For the love of Jerry Coleman keep these kids. I wanna see them come up. But i also know some of these lefties will be traded this year. Just hope Preller keeps the gnarliest ones.
Oh Chef Niebla, please cook a masterpiece.
Hope yall sign him. Kid looks gooood
