Arizona St. has top prospect but might play matchups

Posted Jun 14, 2009
Major league scouts judged right-handers Alex White and Mike Leake the best pitching prospects at the College World Series. But the matchup might not happen, at least in the opener today. White, the 15th player taken in the draft Tuesday, will start North Carolina's opener against Arizona State today, as expected. White tied a World Series record with three victories last season.
