    Matherly, this analysis would be less tedious if you had omitted those players who won't be back next year.

    Is there a deadline for kids to enter the transfer portal?

    For now it was easier to cut and paste from my 2021 thread. Eventually I will clean it up when we get to fall classes starting. I like seeing who has left as well as who we still have because they can be easily forgotten for older folks like me. I get the thread title says 2022 roster and I agree this looks tedious but it will look much better as we get more information on the draft and new enrollees. Eventually when the fall roster gets posted I'll complete erase this and drop in a better one.

    Not to my knowledge. Maybe you should write the NCAA to give them this great recommendation. Don't forget to hold your breathe. I say that not towards you but against the open portal mentality thanks to the NCAA.

    Deadline to declare for Tranfer Portal is July 1 which seems a bit unusual as the MLB draft is July 11-13.

    My take is -- beyond the obvious guys- Mace, JL, Jud- we'll lose Hickey, Aleman, Scott and likely JY to draft. Gotta get some top gun arms on campus but the top commits are very likely gone.

    Does anyone have any info to report on summer league assignments whether Cape Cod or elsewhere? That would likely indicate who is staying in college ranks.

    Is that in order to be eligible for next year? I’ve seen them enter the portal mid season so I don’t think there’s ever a closed season for entering.

    New NCAA transfer rules--- Deadline to declare is July 1 for spring sports student-athletes and May 1 for fall and winter sports.
    Except this year... July 1 for all sports (and only this year).

    77—

    It was our experience underclassmen received invitations sooner than incoming JR’s—the summer league teams are trying to form their rosters but wait until after the CWS/Amateur Draft to invite those players so that they would not have to hunt other players as last minute type deals.

    Speaking of next year's roster, I see Derek Fabian was named Mr Baseball in Florida. Congrats to the Fabian family. I think they're from Ocala.

    North Marion’s Deric Fabian voted state’s top baseball player

    Fabian batted .462 with 13 home runs for the Colts, and also drove in 52 runs in 29 games. At 6-foot-4, Fabian also demonstrates a solid glove at shortstop. He is committed to the University of Florida, where his older brother Jud was recently honored as a Third Team All-American center fielder.

    Thanks 74,
    MLB draft a month later than usual this year so not sure how that affects summer league rosters. I think Cape Cod starts this weekend and runs 'til beginning of August. Have checked and very few teams have posted rosters.

    Hey 87, I heard the news last night and nice surprise as a few posts here have been less than stellar about Derec potential. Those numbers speak volumes.

    Yeah I am surprised by some of the potential negative reviews of him as well. I have heard from other sources he was better than Jud. No clue. Never saw either at the HS level. Wish both of them the best though!

    Yes, the Fabian family is from Ocala. Jud went to Trinity Catholic HS in SW Ocala, while Derec went to North Marion HS in Sparr, FL, a few miles north of Ocala.
