This kid just won the Gatorade Player of the Year

 

6 2 LHP that touches 94

 

He is 10-0 with a 0.20 ERA and 145 strikeouts in 68 1/3 innings this season. At the plate, Gore is hitting a team-best .482 with 17 extra-base hits and 27 RBI.

 

Who else has won the award?

 

7: RHP Rick Porcello (West Orange, N.J.)

2006: LHP/1B Clayton Kershaw (Dallas)

2005: SS/3B Justin Upton (Chesapeake, Va.)

2004: RHP/SS Mark Rogers (Topsham, Maine)

2003: OF Chris Lubanski (Collegeville, Pa.)

2002: RHP/SS Zack Greinke (Apopka, Fla.)

 

Remember the name Mackenzie Gore

 

Could go as high as 3, but most likely in top 10

You forgot BJ Garbe, Kyle Skipworth, Matt Hobgood and Kaleb Cowart. Gatorade player of the year means mlb bust as many times as it means star

True, but of those only Hobgood was a pitcher.

Not a bad track record for the pitchers who have won.

Actually I don't see him as much of a dark horse anymore. I have not seen a recent mock draft that has him falling past the #4 selection (I'm not closely monitoring all of them, however).

I would be fine if the Twins took him with the #1 pick.

Certainly not past Atlanta at #5.

 

Personally, I like Gore better than Greene.

Me too. A lot more, actually.
