OTHERS TO WATCH: LHP Chandler Best (McGill Toolen HS, AL), a Southern Mississippi signee, commands the breaking ball to both sides of the plate with late depth and his upper-80s fastball shows late life. OF Jordan Beck (Hazel Green HS, AL) has big time power and a patient approach. A Tennessee recruit, he stands at 6-foot-3, 205 pounds and profiles as a right fielder with his power and arm strength.
