  1. On 1 total prediction from an OU mod I’ve never heard of
  2. Last year some of the borderline guys were hungry for another shot in Omaha. I don’t really think there’s anything left for Kennedy or Southard in college now
  3. That extra year of age matters and probably offsets him potentially cleaning up the hit tool in both draft order and bonus negotiations
  4. Without Tulo I don’t think it made sense for Trey to come back. Let a pro team fix your swing instead of Rodriguez
  5. Don’t think Cox gets taken there if he’s not signing, but wonder if the slots are small enough now where an NIL counter can make a difference
  6. Draft starting back up. Gotta keep 2/3 of Flores, Cox, Thomas
  7. Damn. Sark and Marion have to deal with a target on their backs for over 2 months here
  8. https://medium.com/@tieranbaseball/mlb-draft-top-500-prospects-fba9fe7fceaf Very in-depth on the top 100 prospects. Fun read on Ivan. Says Bolte is asking for $2.5MM. I never like having hope during draft week
  9. Pierce taking a catcher makes me think we’re out of it. Skenes certainly could want to focus on pitching only, but I would say his value drops way off if that’s the case. We beat him up in the regional, I suspect that would happen frequently in a power conference. He was all American as a utility guy, not exclusively as a pitcher
  10. DC being able to play 3rd is super helpful. A lot easier to fill an outfield spot. 2 mashers, one for first one for dh. And we need 2 SPs, 1 being a Friday guy
  11. Nice. BU always recruited above their weight class in CA and had a good top half of their order. Hopefully the pitching coach hire is at least this splashy
  12. Was waiting for this. Spiegelman doesn’t seem like a scoop merchant, but a low % crystal ball on a guy that’s never had more than “use them to beef up my commitment graphic” level interest in us seemed like a big leap
  13. Why are we canning guys without replacements lined up? There’s no reason to have staff openings for any longer than is legally required. Not that we’ve lost anyone earth shattering, but we’re still more susceptible to transfers out and only have Pierce working on transfers in
  14. Yeah I actually don’t even think that roster sizes shrink now that I’m looking it up. That’s just what the popular reasoning was at the time. And I didn’t really notice anyone else missing in the dugout last week
  15. Roster limits shrink for Omaha. He didn’t choose not to go
  16. True. Pretty close to a Flood or Jerrance Howard
  17. It would be shocking if we could pull him. Tennessee is all in on baseball right now, can’t see them being out bid. And their staff is far and away the best in the country while he’d be building from almost nothing here.
  18. There’s a big difference between finding the perfect missing piece to round out an order and needing to find 5 of those. And trying to replace Quintanilla with under recruited juco guys instead of elite transfers last offseason was a failure
  19. Wake the fuck up, Pierce. Johnson got all his assistants poached and he’s still pulling elite transfers
  20. Merry Archmas to all
  21. CDC needs to tell our major coaches to retire the “…will not be entrusted to the weak nor timid” until they can go one rivalry game without filling their diapers
  22. Pierce is one miraculous Witt outing from being 0-6 in Omaha. This team should be remembered for so much, but will be rightfully reduced to the gutless finish. At least 2018 can be justified by the stacked path we had in Omaha
  23. If you don’t get an answer, shoot for 117 for home games, 107 for away games. That’s about what I remember from last year
  24. My GA season tix aren’t good enough to get my ticket request filled. Anyone got a section number for me so I can buy nearby?
