re: Odds to win the CWS at opening day vs now

Not being facetious, but realistically what/who stands in the way of an eventual LSU CWS win? Barring injury of course, LSU should realistically beat every other opponent.

LSU has an incredible lineup offensively that will make them a hard "out," but the rotation and bullpen have really caught tough breaks in terms of injuries. So pitching depth unfortunately is a big question mark that will need to be resolved with unproven pitchers stepping up between now and June. Stated another way, our Saturday starter should really be a Sunday starter on a team of this caliber, and he can be fairly erratic, which is a pretty big vulnerability and thus tests the rest of our staff. We just don't have the staff to relentlessly mow teams down.
