FAYETTEVILLE — Another abbreviated Major League Baseball Draft will take place over the next three days, and the repercussions from it will help shape Coach Dave Van Horn’s University of Arkansas roster heading into fall enrollment.
Sophomore third baseman Cayden Wallace and junior pitcher Peyton Pallette headline the group of current Razorbacks likely to be taken in the early rounds of the draft. Arkansas also has signees like pitcher Cole Phillips and infielder Jayson Jones, as well as transfer commitments like shortstop Jordan Sprinkle, who are potential draft picks who might not make it to campus.
