I don't know enough about the other teams to give an accurate ranking. UK's JUCO guys are really talented though.Any idea on what the ranking would be if JC players were included
I don't necessarily see it either, but I was told the way Haake threw this spring at JUCO would've been good enough to compete for a weekend spot this season. I don't know if UK will throw him in the midweek or use him in the bullpen, but he's a very good arm to have.RE Haake: "We’re going to have to wait to the fall to really see it, but I’m going to imagine he slides into the weekend relatively early."
He better be pretty damn good to take a weekend spot. Do not see it happening. Hjelle and Thompson are proven and have been around, and Thompson may be the best prospect on the staff.
It's far from a waste for anyone to start midweek games. Louisville (x2), Indiana, Xavier, Cincinnati, WKU and others are strong teams. As we saw in 2016, we need to win most of these games to beef up our tournament resume. But, I agree that it's a good problem to have.

I wouldn't overlook Mason Hazelwood. That kid was 91-94 this spring with a swing and miss slider and throwing his changeups for strikes. He may compete for midweek starts.
I'm not sure Garland is still committed.
