I don't think he is going anywhere picked this late.

I hope he comes back! He's a threat hitting, all the time! Can't blame any of these guys for chasing the dream…. But, selfishly, I hope to see him playing at The Doak again next season!

Odds are not in your favor with this take.

Last year, 30 players were selected in the 15th round and only 2 didn't sign with the team that drafted them. Both were HS kids, one was a C from Alaska that signed with Oregon (he's in the portal) and a SS that signed with UGA and he's also hit the portal. He's transferred to USCar to play next year.

Hogue was listed as a 3B in the draft announcement.

Either way, safe to say he's going to sign in the $100K-$150K range. Hell, he might've agreed to take less to get picked.
