So as of right now, Ohio might be seeing some of its players playing their way into the draft.

As long as Streich is healthy, he'll go high and not return next season.

Newton I must say I don't know enough about to know what scouts think of him. He's not the most disciplined at the plate, he's not big and while he's fast, he's not unbelievably fast. If Ohio keeps winning and he keeps being solid, he probably at least gets a look.

I feel as though Choban has pitched his way into the draft. Not sure how high since he is a senior, but he has size, lefty-ness and the numbers.

I thought Molton would have been drafted after his junior year if injuries didn't slow him down. Now, he's another guy I don't know enough about from a scouting angle. Where has his fastball been MPH wise this season? He's pitched pretty well this season as has great control. Being a fifth year with injury issues in the past might scare some teams from going too high, but I think he also gets a shot.

Sorry I don't have more insight, I'm pretty much speculating from afar, but we should get a few guys drafted this season. Maybe those who have caught more games or seen scouts around will know more.

Painter has struggled lately, but he may get a look late as well. It will be tougher to be drafted late since the draft was cut from 50 to 40 rounds.
