Tate Blackman
I said he plays SS because that's what Chase thinks.

I still meant our JUCO outfielder coming in would bat second and play left, just had the names mixed up.

Put Jamison in CF just because of experience, but of course could be woodman.

Bramlett is injuried is why I didn't mention him but you're right, if he comes back healthy he is one of our stronger arms

So could this Tate Blackman guy do what Alex Bregman did his freshman year?

Baseball recruiting is tough to follow. You have to put in considerable effort to know what all is going on. Much more so than football.

I must admit. You've been my main recruiting source.

Baseball recruiting is impossible to follow.

I could be wrong. I'm higher on Errol defensively than most. I know Chase is mainly down on him because of his arm strength. It's a valid argument because it really limits his range moving to his right. Arm strength is a tool you can develop though, and he's only a freshman.

Thanks. I mainly post on another board. I just come here to watch the trolling.

Has Bortles outgrown third? I assume he has but that would help with flexibility in the lineup. If he can only play first then Bortles or Orvis will always be the DH. That keeps Bell out of the lineup if he can't learn a position

Guys, Cliff went up to Washington to pull what he's says could be our best hitter yet. He's a raw pull hitter but his power cannot be taught. Stats aren't overly impressive but his bat swing and strength are what jumps out at you and Cliff fell in love. Will be a fan favorite. Big son bitch

I've been told that Bortles is a better glove than Bell, so while he may not have the range that Anderson has, he is less of a liability at the moment. King may can play there but not sure his arm strength is built for third

I'm not counting on King helping much right now, I'll keep why off the boards. But I've heard he is good and very solid on D

Hopefully, a two guys step up and can be weekend starters along with Trent. I think Smith would be better in a reliever role.

I don't see Short being able to be a starter but will be a very solid reliever

It may be worth playing Bortles at 3rd with the new balls. I have a feeling there are going to be a lot more HR's next season.

I'm about ready to start talking about some foosball. I'm starting to be really impressed with Bo Wallace's stamina. During the TCU game I saw him put down 3 pitchers by himself without showing any signs of inebriation.

I'm ready to see what kind of impact working with this west coast trainer will have on him.

Welcoming the team back to Swayze will be tomorrow at 2. We need to have as many people there as possible. I would be if I wasn't 12 hours away
