Last I checked Chamberlains ops was 1.000 so far this summer. We aren’t dead in the water if we miss there, but obviously it’s preferable for Chamberlain to platoon LH DH.
If we miss at C we probably need 1 more top of the order bat. Moving Volantis out of the pen likely means we can’t expect to win nearly every close game again next season
Pretty much everyone except UGA have catchers set for next year either returning or committed. Appears like LSU has entered the sweepstakes, would be pretty cut throat to recruit over Arrambide.
Lot of budget for Tinney is freed up. I assume plenty of teams are ahead of us in line for Sosa. The backup plan seems like Mack Whitcomb now, good slugging backstop from Tenn Tech
I’d say it’s a pretty good sign that Tinney is leaving the cape for a visit. Assumed the ship had sailed there.
Dylan Grego - Ball St SS seems to be one that the whole staff is following. 1.000 ops and .980 fielding % vs meh competition
Wondering if we’d offer Dylan Loy a weekend spot.
With closer settled today we’re looking to be in good shape with plenty of time left
Seems like twitter mostly sorts Following by recent again if anyone cares to see who we’re targeting. Not shocking, but LSU and Tenn already have some big fish in the boat
Say whatever you want about the end of his career here at the plate, but he is certainly not a choker. 2 post season grand slams. Grand slam in the 9th this year to not get swept by T state. Huge late homer and another rbi in the Saturday game vs LSU that won us that series. At least 5 walk offs/go ahead homers last year
We clearly need to upgrade there, but the shit talking is going overboard on him
As soon as I saw OLu I wondered that. I’m sure Borba ending the season on such a high note can’t hurt their reviews of the program
1/3 of his hits as homers and 50 Ks feels very Gasparino-y. Homers vs USC and UCI midweek and a few vs UCSB. Can’t teach 20 homer power as a freshman, but that K rate in the WCC is a bit scary.
Volantis would be wearing purple and gold next year if we asked him to be a career reliever. He deserves the ball on Friday nights and he’s going to get it
