Caitlin Tan wanted to breed her childhood horse, JP, because she’s been “amazing” — the type of animal any equestrian would be lucky to have once in a lifetime. Having access to coveted bloodlines increased the allure. Via the Miller Ranch, she could pair her 18-year-old mare with a stud descendent of Playboy’s Buck Fever.

The top-ranked player in Florida baseball’s 2024 signing class, Hardee Senior shortstop Kellon Lindsey, heard his name called in the first round of the MLB draft on Sunday. The Los Angeles Dodgers selected Lindsey with the 23rd overall pick, all but guaranteeing the beginning of his professional career. Lindsey shot up draft boards this spring after scouts got wind of him on their way to spring training. He quickly moved up the class rankings and became an expected loss from Florida’s signing class.

Jack Hadley notes that this fine building served as “Douglass High School’s extended classroom.” It probably dates to circa 1910, or even a bit […]

Bryce Cunningham, Carter Holton, and commit Owen Hall were all selected in Round Two yesterday. I expect Jonathan Vastine and Greysen Carter to get chosen today. Alan Espinal should have a pretty good chance, too. As always, hope to not hear the name of any commits today, and then pay attention to Round 11 tomorrow. After that, there’s usually no need to worry.
