I hope it will look like this, but I think Antigua will get the start over Newstrom…

I think Blanco will be the Friday night guy. Amped up series opener is always nice to use a guy that’s going to throw strikes imo. His 2024 season as UVAs Friday guy should be evidence enough that he can handle the moment. I think Kuhns will be the Saturday guy. Sunday is interesting. I think...
Arkansas looks to be overrated. Helfrick will be really good, possibly All American, but they lost a ton of talent from one of the strongest teams in school history.
Very interesting. I don’t see Frederick as more than a midweek guy. I wonder if the angle holds up at that speed or if SEC opponents will figure it out. He’s coming in about 8mph slower than Causey.
Bad, other than his Chattanooga outing. Sounds like he has made some plays at 3B but the Ks are racking up. I thought he was going to keep hitting bombs. May be adjusting to Tennessee
He looked a little thicker in Chattanooga but still not like a 12 HR guy. I think you’d be really happy if you got something like .325 6 HR 17dubs with an elite glove
I will be very surprised if this staff doesn’t average a sub-3.00 ERA on the weekends. Obviously it is helped by the early non-con but the depth is growing, the stuff is elite, and guys are really coming into form. We will need to continue getting strikes from Phillips, but you can’t put a...
Game 2 vs Florida. I think they’re going deep in Omaha. I think we can win game 1 in Knoxville, but their rotation is pretty stacked. I don’t think we’ll know much about the Gators until they come to Knoxville.
*I mistakenly thought the series was in the swamp.
Like an absolute heathen, I’ve done some digging into the Hofstra team. They return 2 of their top 9 hitters from last year. The first is infielder Dylan Palmer, who was 2nd team All AAC last year. Hits for a very high percentage and was 2nd in conference in stolen bags, but not a lot of xBH. He...
I have a feeling that Newstrom is going to end up as the starting RF in May, and Marin will be the starting 3B 2 of the 3 games this weekend. I don’t trust Chapman or Backus against SEC pitching. When it’s all said and done, I think we’ll go into regionals looking like this….
