The former Diamond Dawg hears his name called.
The Seattle Mariners selected Jurrangelo Cijntje with the 15th pick in the MLB Draft. When Cijntje arrived in Starkville, there was a lot of hype surrounding him because he was an ambidextrous pitcher who could throw over 90 miles per hour from each side.
The hype surrounding Cijntje was evident, but he struggled his first season under MSU pitching coach Scott Foxhall. The freshman pitcher was thrown into the Friday night spot for State in SEC play, and naturally, he struggled as he finished the season with a 3-5 record, an 8.10 ERA, with 63 strikeouts to 34 walks.
