Commodores in the Pros [Fantasy Baseball version]
I think it’s great to see the lists of VU players in the majors/minors, and now in the playoffs, but it would be equally impressive to see a list of those players now in the majors who were committed to Vanderbilt but chose to play professional ball instead. Just in the Braves organization you have Ian Anderson and Touki, at least. Also Justus Sheffield with the Mariners and I’m sure many others. Hard to imagine that the 2019 team could have won more games, but if Anderson is one of your starters, who knows? Anyone have a good list of commits we lost to the draft in the Corbin era?

Can you imagine our pitching lineup had Anderson come to Vandy?MountainDore wrote: ↑Thu Oct 01, 2020 5:34 pm I think it’s great to see the lists of VU players in the majors/minors, and now in the playoffs, but it would be equally impressive to see a list of those players now in the majors who were committed to Vanderbilt but chose to play professional ball instead.

Re: Potential Commodores in the Pros
If the Dodgers don't at least tie (if only temporarily) tonight's game (currently top of the 5th inning) a former Vanderbilt commit could get the Win while Walker Buehler takes the loss.
Ryan Weathers was drafted no. 7 overall in 2018, went from Rookie/Class A in 2018, Class A in 2019, and the Alternate Training roster of the San Diego Padres in 2020. Then he made his MLB debut in the postseason tonight.
