View Draft Report
2B Shaun Larkin missed last year after he transferred from Texas Tech to Cal State Northridge. He played well in the New England Collegiate League last summer and was an offensive force in the Big West. Plate discipline is the strength of his game. He was leading the conference with 55 walks, a .516 on-base percentage and .687 slugging percentage while batting .368 with 14 homers. As a fifth-year senior, Larkin is eligible to sign before the draft if the Matadors don't make it out of regional play.
