  1. We’ll likely get swept this weekend, but some semi-encouraging things happened.

    Witt throwing 93-94 with some success is huge.  If we can get him back to form by being a 1-A/1-B with LBJ, then we can slot everyone else down a notch in the pitching order. 

    Also, maybe the homer gets Porter Brown back on track. He’s a proven guy that should be one of our top 3 hitters. Campbell was ice cold last year until after this god-foresaken tournament, so a red-hot Brown the rest of the year would give us 4 very good hitters in a row. 

    Speaking of homers, maybe JOD’s homer will get him back to being an above-average/serviceable bat in our lineup. I also have hope for Galvan and Belyeu along with the Freshmen Gasparino/Borba/Kennedy all improving throughout the year to make this lineup pretty tough and deep by April/May. 

    Not ideal to have to “hope” for about 4 things to happen to be a “contender”, but it’s all possible.  And of course if it doesn’t come together and we fall flat on our face, then fire Pierce!

    We have more than a year before our first SEC series. Let's get Big 12 ready first.

    Need to get 2 quality/proven starting pitchers and at least 3 stud hitters (including a real catcher) from the portal. LSU can do it, we need to figure it out. Shit, just go get 2-3 of them Texas State boys to start with.

    Gaspy's got a pretty good eye and lays off that outside breaking ball that always looks so tasty.

    Inside heat still gets by him, but as he continues to tighten up that swing, he's going to be unreal.

    He's got long arms to begin with and the outer half of the plate allows him to get away with the longish swing.  For an opposing pitcher to throw him anything on the outside half is malpractice. 

    Once he breaks the ice with his first homer, they’ll come in bunches.

  4. Off season moves weren't spectacular, but could really be good if Sale can stay healthy and Kelenic lives up to his prospect ranking.  Even if they both tank, we should still be one of the top 3 teams in the league. The Dodgers will be tough, but this will be the year to beat them with Otahni only hitting and not contributing to their pitching staff.
