Rays MOD #2

Hello again,

My apologies on not getting this up sooner; still adjusting to getting up very early every other morning for work, so I haven't had as much energy at home as I'm used to. Anyways, since we've already discussed the first pick some (more discussion is always welcome though), I want to move on to the 2nd and 3rd picks the Rays have, at 31 and 40 respectively.

Since Austin Beck is my preferred choice for pick #4, I would like to get at least one arms between those two picks. However, I may deviate from that somewhat depending on how things go. Also, we have to take into consideration that Beck would likely be at least a slot sign if not more, so to save some money, I would like to have at least one college pick in here. In any case, here are some of the names I'm thinking about:

College pitchers: Tristan Beck, RHP, Stanford; Seth Romero, LHP, Houston; Nate Pearson, RHP, Central Florida JC; Alex Lange, RHP, Louisiana State; David Peterson, LHP, Oregon; Brenden Little, LHP, State College of Florida (these last three probably won't be there at 33)

High School pitchers: Hagan Danner, RHP/C, Huntington Beach HS (committed to UCLA, my top choice for 40); Tanner Burns, RHP, Decatur HS (committed to Auburn); Alex Scherff, RHP, Colleyville Heritage HS (committed to Texas A&M);Jacob Heatherly, LHP, Cullman HS (committed to Alabama); Trevor Rogers, LHP, Carlsbad HS (committed to Texas Tech) (I don't expect Heatherly or Rogers to be available at 33)

College hitters: Brent Rooker, 1B, Mississippi State (my top choice for 33); Evan White, 1B/OF, Kentucky; Keston Hiura, 2B, UC Irvine (I'm not sure any of these will still be available at 33, with Rooker being the most likely)

High School hitters: Drew Waters, OF, Etowah HS (committed to Georgia); Tristan Lutz, OF, Martin HS (committed to Texas); Connor Uselton, OF, Southmoore HS (committed to Oklahoma State); Garrett Mitchell, OF, Orange Lutheran HS (committed to UCLA); Quentin Holmes, OF, Monsignor McClancy Memorial (committed to Mississippi State); Mark Vientos, 3B, American Heritage HS (committed to Miami); Nick Allen, SS, Parker HS (committed to Southern California) (Vientos and Allen I don't think will be available)

Even though I want Beck at #4, I'm fine doubling up on OFs if that is the best player available. If you have any other names to add, please feel free to mention them and I'll take them into consideration.
