main reason he didnt get drafted that high is because he has told teams he is very serious about going to college. This isnt the NHL where if you draft a kid you have the rights to him all the way through college, once he chooses not to to go the minors, the MLB team that chose him just wasted a pick. So what team in their right mind would draft a kid who will go to college no matter what when they can spend a 2nd 3rd of 4th round pick on another great player that will play for them. Bollinger isnt that good compared to the rest of the country so please just stop. please. PLEASE.
7andpoo... he got drafted so he must be pretty good. did u get drafted... no so shut the heck up... please.
Bollinger is a 6' 3-4'' gangly lefty. You only have to be very average to get drafted with those two traits because lets face it, if were going by actual pitching in the past 2 years, bollinger is not at the top by any means.
