Golden Spikes Watchlist Includes Pair of Hogs

Two Arkansas Razorbacks have been tabbed as potential successors to their former teammate as the Golden Spikes Award winner.

Two Arkansas Razorbacks have been tabbed as potential successors to their former teammate as the Golden Spikes Award winner. Last year Kevin Kopps put up a magical year, coming from way off the board to win the “Baseball Heisman.” This year Robert Moore and Cayden Wallace will enter the season on everyone’s radars.

These two Hogs join 53 other players on the preseason watch list. As we noted earlier in the week, both are clearly among the best returning players on a Top Ten team. And both should hear their names called early in the MLB draft.

Arkansas opens its season this Friday in Fayetteville when they host Illinois State University. First pitch is scheduled for 3:00pm.
