Brady Toops was #4, Clay Goodwin was #6 and Scott Hode was #7. Arkansas signee Ben Tschepikow was ranked #15. About Jay Sawatski they say: the Razorbacks' most valuable component as they tied for the regular-season title. Pitching in a swing role, he earned a win or save in 10 of the Razorbacks' 19 SEC victories. He's a bulldog who throws strikes with a sharp slider and a fastball that sits at 88-90 mph and can reach 93 when he comes out of the bullpen.

Here's how some other Arkansas signees were ranked: Matt Willard was ranked #16 in Pennsylvania. Shaun Seibert was ranked #21 in Illinois. In Missouri, T.J. Sinovich was #12 and Nick Schmidt was #15. Seth Loman was #14 in Colorado. Here's what BA had to say: Shaun Seibert threw in the low 90s and flashed a good slider at the Perfect Game Indoor Showcase in February. But he strained his elbow in May while trying to halt his delivery after an umpire called timeout. That injury and his size (6 feet, 170 pounds) may mean that teams won't try to divert him from Arkansas. T.J. Sinovich is polished, with command of three pitches. He should boost his fastball from 84-86 mph as he fills out his 6-foot-4, 205-pound frame. Nick Schmidt has the size (6-foot-5, 225 pounds) and velocity (89-92 mph), though he's not as refined.
