He is a Sophomore at San Jac and will be on campus next year..

I spoke to some one close to Sonny Diaz, Scouting Report on the young man..

Donny as a person is awesome. As a pitcher he is unreal. He could go to any university today and be their closer.

He's 92-94 touches 95

Power curveball

Change up

And a slider so nasty that he can throw it at 55 feet and they will still swing.

For  '17 (upcoming season)  ?     I count 41 on the roster meaning 6 will be cut.

What we really need is juco catcher by January.    Trust me !

Any Juco transfers that transfers in January will not be eligible to play until the fall.

This coaching staff are quite comfortable with the players that they have on campus.

I think we have 7 on the docket for Fall 2017. And the kid from Canada is a legit pro prospect and may not make it to campus

RHP Tristan Stevens is a Freshman at Maple Woods Community College, will transfer next year as a sophomore.
