Georgia Tech = Catcher U.
With Vahn Lackey poised to go early, @GTBaseball will move ahead of Miami for the most first-round catchers ever with five.
The others?
Jason Varitek (1994)
Matt Wieters (2007)
Joey Bart (2018)
Kevin Parada (2022)

@BillBrockm88268@Fantavious9 Will is naturally an INF who got stuck out in the OF to get his bat in the lineup. There is a reason he was the DH as much as he was. Daniel was a catcher in HS, who can play 2B and OF, he is a much more realiable defender than Baker in the OF.

Weโve reached the point where now people have forgotten that these players were valued for 100+ years before analytics took over baseball front offices.
With so many teams choosing offense over defense this was inevitably going to happen.
Glad to see the pendulum swinging back to sanity.
@dominiclisti@Southpaw2019 Agreed, Fl has the arms and the bats are getting hot at the right time to make a run. Birdball going to a small launching pad against a team like UGA is not kind to them. They had a great szn but I think Tech gave them a dose of reality that they canโt beat those kind of teams.
@Connor_Allen72@givemeglenn@Monty2740 Your excuse is our โpitcher sucksโ but heโs good enough to pitch for youโฆ didnโt think that one through.
TOURNAMENT AND REGULAR SEASON CHAMPIONS!
The Yellow Jackets have swept both championships for the 4th time in school history and the first time since 2005!
