Last week I promised more of a college focus on these previews, since there’s a good chance the Mariners will go with a college player with their first pick in the 2020 draft, regardless of where they’re picking. I am nothing but a lady of my word, so last week you read (please, please tell me you read) about Nick Gonzales, a hit-machine infielder from New Mexico State who made a ton of noise on the Cape this season. This time we stay in the college ranks but shift over to the pitching side with FSU’s CJ Van Eyk, whose mid-90s heater might be his third-best pitch.
