the only thing I see keeping him from eventually going high in the draft is his lack of size and power.
But I honestly didn't know that about CT.
Norris will probably be drafted as a pitcher again when it's all said and done.

He will end up being a solid pitcher in college, but I think he will have a bigger impact at the plate. He just doesn't possess the type of stuff needed to be a high draft pick as a pitcher. Unless his velocity jumps way up, I can't see him going that high.
And Todd, how high could Bradford really go? He is a damn good ball player, but he lacks power and is really undersized. I just can't see either of them leaving after next year.

i keep thinking the kid who played for om a couple years ago that was their leadoff. jordan something i believe. him and ct are similiar imo. fast, undersized, lacks power but has a high average
Saw him in Bowie a few weeks ago with the Indians AA team. He's working his way up, still batting a little under .300 in AA.
The problem is that Jordan Henry is 7 inches taller than C.T., listed at 6'3".

I didn't say that he would be drafted high- it's hard to say where he will be drafted because we don't know how much progress he is going to make over the course of time. I'm just saying that MLB will draft him as a pitcher. I agree with you as far as him being a hitter in college, but his pro future is as a pitcher. And you are right about his velocity- but what is impressive about him is his control, the fact that he keeps the ball down, he has great poise on the mound, and he has a very good breaking ball. He's also very competitive and he isn't scared of anything. As you said, he needs to increase his velocity and he also needs to work on his secondary pitches.
As far as CT- see the above comment about Norris and how much progress he makes over time. Kolten Wong is 5'9" and was drafted in the first round. Now, I'm not saying that CT will be a first round pick, but he could go as high as anyone else.
I agree that both will be back after next year.
