Woah, my nephew's name is Easton Lucas. (First & Middle)

[emkayseven]

I imagine he'll sign:

Easton Lucas is a redshirt junior pitcher and liberal arts major. As a senior at Grace Brethren High School in Simi Valley, California, he had the opportunity that many high schoolers only dream of as a left-handed pitcher.

“I did talk to some scouts in high school,” Lucas said. “I talked to the Diamondbacks and the Dodgers. They wanted me to come play minor league ball. It was tough sort of laying out my options in terms of what was better. I obviously chose college.”


While he’s a senior by academics, he would have the opportunity to come back as a fifth-year player on the team due to being redshirted his freshman season. If he were drafted in April, he said he thinks he is ready to be a professional.

“If I’m taken in the spring I’ll be able to focus on baseball full time,” Lucas said. “This past summer I pitched well in the Cape Cod League and that’s what has really put me on the map. Since then, I text a couple scouts every week. The past year or so I have met up with around 10 to 15.”
