#cardinals have agreement in place with 12th rounder RHP Jacob Schlesener. Over slot, pending physical. Had commit to #razorbacks #stlcArds
Anytime you get a lefty who throws 92-93 you have to be excited. Long way to go in command, polish, also needs to clean up the breaking ball. Great frame, projection in his arm, and a lefty to boot.

Woah! I didn't see the arm being quite that high either. Interesting indeed.
The draft will move to a Thursday next year so it won't coincide with Super Regionals. I guess there was also talk of holding it in Omaha (which would be awesome!), but it doesn't look like that's going to happen in 2016.
