The field is set for the @JUCOWorldSeries! Here are the BaGS leaders among the #NJCAA D1 schools in the bracket. @cfpats are loaded with talent, but it's @BlinnBaseball & LSU commit Tanner Reaves with the top mark this year.

One more for tonight. The @WakeBaseball trio of Lowder, Sullivan, & Hartle hold down the 2-4 spots nationally, according to DIGS+. Pure dominance from the Deacs' 3-headed monster this year! π©. Full Leaderboard π½

#GoHalos Shohei Ohtani finished with a 17-3 DIGS W-L record this year. He posted a 29% gem rate (80 or higher DIGS), adding two more scores of 79. His 105 on on June 22 was among the best scores in MLB this year. Amazing season on the mound.

The top #NJCAA hitters in the nation, ranked by division, per Batter Game Score (BaGS+). Not as many commitments as the pitching side so far, but I'm sure many of these guys are destined for 4-year schools.

Jeez. So @WakeBaseball now has 2 of the top 3 returning pitchers in D1, according to DIGS+. Chase Burns (153 DIGS+; #3 overall) joins Josh Hartle (160 DIGS+; #1 overall). Mason Molina ranks 2nd, & I don't believe he's announced where he's transferring too yet.
Chase Burns announced on Instagram that he has committed to Wake Forest. Burns and Josh Hartle at the top of the Deacs rotation is dynamic. Both project as first rounders next year.

370 NorCal schools; almost 7,000 players. Here is the cream of the crop. You can be a great player & not have your name on this list (no rating will catch every last one of them), but I don't think you can be on this list and NOT be a great player! @PbrCalifornia @adamr2124

Combined "All-DIGS" squad for #JUCOPRODUCT NJCAA Divisions 2 & 3. I'll be the first to admit this group often doesn't get the same love & attention as D1, but it's not for lack of talent. These guys will impact 4-year (and maybe pro) programs next year.

The #D1baseball end of year regional rankings continue with Next Level Northeast. A fun part of these groupings is getting to highlight players & schools that don't get as much attention during the year. That can't be said for leader Matt Duffy, who's been making noise for years!

Lorenzen's first run through the rotation was a success. His 73 DIGS is top 5 among AL starters in the early going. #GoHalos could sure use that kind of production from their starters.

I've been logging NCAA DIGS data the past couple days, & I've covered every year back to 2015 (excluding 2020). Just how dominant was @WakeBaseball's rotation this year? Rhett Lowder, Josh Hartle, & Sean Sullivan are all now in the ACC top 10 since '15!

Rhett Lowder with a cool 80 DIGS night (7-3-0-2-9) for @WakeBaseball. He probably won't be the first pitcher drafted this summer, but watch him go top 20 & George Kirby his way thru the minors.
