    Team site preview: LSU | Notre Dame

    SS Josh Smith
    1B Nick Webre
    RF Antoine Duplantis
    CF Zach Watson
    LF Daniel Cabrera
    C Bryce Jordan
    DH Beau Jordan
    3B Jake Slaughter
    2B Brandt Broussard

    We only have one catcher who can throw the ball back to the pitcher currently bc the other 2 are injured. Bryce Jordan gets the start. Fedducia with a broken hand and Coomes got hbp in the elbow and is coming off hip surgery.

    This is why I didnt understand Doolittle transferring a couple weeks ago. He'd likely be starting week 1. Cpm let it be known however he was at the bottom and they agreed to part ways.

    Hitting should be strong enough to win games as our arms develop. And heal.
    We should get 2 of 3 vs cpms old team. They are very young. A sweep and payback for the bowl would be ideal.

    Will Hess become a full time starter or end up back in the closer role? Pitching staff needs to get healthy and get some experience before the SEC starts play.

    We will find out. Got some young guns who will for sure get time to see what they can do. I would suspect with Walker hurt, we lack the depth to "not" use Hess as a starter, but I am sure CPM would love to cage this animal and use him as a closer. We wore his ass down last year in the CWS, but man, when that dude is fresh.......

    Why is FL so strong in pitching while we’re trying to hobble a group of guys together. We lost guys to the draft, I heard. Is that a valid excuse? Maybe we should do a better job of evaluating which players are getting drafted?

    Professional sports destroying our roster; sounds familiar.

    What's with the fatalism. At least wait til first pitch. Or as I do. The first failed hit n run of which there are many.
    Usually one of us ends up talking to ourselves within the thread. No one really follows baseball til we near the postseason.

    I'm stuck in traffic in pensacola for the time being. Trying to see Cabreras first at bat without wrecking
