He has some helium leading up to draft day. Baseball America has him as their #26 prospect now. Solid shot to go on the first day of the draft, provided his bonus demands aren't ridiculous.
With MLB's new slotting system, guys will fall way further than they should if they have huge demands because teams need to be able to manipulate their bonus pools in order to fit them in without forfeiting draft picks. Daz Cameron was an example of that last year. They'll still get their money, they'll just go later than their talent would dictate if it was the NBA, NFL, or NHL draft.
