Talk about a full circle moment. I was fortunate enough to recruit Hayden, watch him develop under @rmcskip17 and staff, and then draft him 4 years later. Pretty neat story. Congrats to Hayden, his family, and @RMCJackets on this well-deserved opportunity!
Third Diamond Jacket @MLBDraft pick in five years. Congratulations Hayden!

Mookie makes it look easy. Love how he runs with his mouth open to keep his eyes from jumping when he is tracking the ball. Best RF in the game.
