Just wondering how this years MLB draft will shake out regarding current players along with incoming recruits? Obviously the kid from Minnesota will have a tough decision(can't remember the kids name) but are there any other recruits that are going to be drafted this year?

 
So far, thru 53 picks, Boldt has not been selected. Even after his knee injury, that is a bigger fall than what was expected by most.

 
This is shaping up well for Nebraska. It looks like Boldt will not go high enough to get the kind of bonus he expected, and Derek Burkamper has announced he will not sign with any pro team.

He's got to wind up in Lincoln right?

This kid was the best player left on the board according to MLB.com's rankings pretty much all day today. He was projected to go in the top 10 rounds I'd think. Whether it be the knee injury or what, something caused his stock to take a nosedive.

If he comes to campus you'd have to think he'd boost his stock and be able to get drafted higher in 3 years. Nice to get this talent boost!

JUCO catching commit Ryan Miller will be signing with the Padres. Was drafted in the 14th round, the No. 418 pick overall.

Good luck to Ryan, he would have been a great addition. Otherwise, ideal draft for us, pitching being a more immediate need than catcher.

Looks like we fared about as well as we could have in the draft this year. Having Boldt on campus for 3 years will be a huge upgrade in talent and hopefully he can help get things going and we can see some more talent start to find their way to Lincoln.
