Yes and yes. It's a good core of returning guys, redshirt guys and some other returning guys like Forbes,Biven, Vierling and Klein.Assuming the returnees perform consistently and at an expected level. Plus, no major injuries, This team should be talented in the field and at the plate. They should also have depth. Pitching. That is Still the $1M question since the Covid year. Can we get back to great pitching. We all know it has been very average since that year. Fri and Sat starters Have to be above average. Sunday and weekday starters Have to average at worse. Seems like the staff has been piece-meal for a while.
Yeah, I think they signed a ss,but if Kilen were to get hurt they'd want a guy with a little more seasoning.Those were the only guys I recall. The Catcher and pitcher were very good gets. The middle infielder was a bit of a head scratcher to me. Maybe a depth guy.
That's what Corbett was talking about. He's been with these new guys,especially the bullpen guys for 4 weeks,getting to know them and said it won't be easy when some don't make the cut.What is crazy to me is - 55 guys on the ‘big’ roster trying to make the final what 42- man roster? That’s crazy; lot of guys not playing come Spring.
Yeah, I think what it says is nobody's safe. Time to put up or you know what. Mac is changing maybe just a little sleeping on returning vets and his past tendency to give those guys already in the system the outright best chance of playing.I don’t think anyone is saying that. Rather, just crazy that so many guys are out there fighting to make the ‘active’ roster.
Well,they certainly have some. The Sophomores are really good.CDM is taking a chance on becoming less competitive by continuing to construct his program with talented incoming freshmen rather that transfers from the Portal. It is a risky move, but I like his courageous stand and will continue to support Dan and this UL baseball program.
I am certainly no authority on any of this, but the long term success appears to depend largely on keeping that young talent from leaving UL via the portal.
I see that perspective. Keep this mind…signing all of your recruits is huge. They did it this cycle. That has not been the case the last few years and it hurt the program. He uas used the portal. Hoy - middle infielder appears to be a massive pickup. The catcher Napleton should be the starter. He also brought in a pitcher from Wright St (Gongora) along with Lewis Univ pitcher Karaba. I think he addressed positions of need.CDM is taking a chance on becoming less competitive by continuing to construct his program with talented incoming freshmen rather that transfers from the Portal.

Somebody told me Vierling and Klein were both still rehabbing those injuries from last season. Must've been pretty serious. I have spotted Klein in uniform practicing lately. Don't think he's 100 yet.The catcher Napleton should be the starter.
