I expect Serrano to bring his average up this year. Fisher hit .421 in the Manhattan regional last year and hit well once he got accustomed to SEC play.

Bobby Wernes a JUCO transfer can rake. Hit .375 last year with 34RBI and led his team to JUCO World Series.

Michael Bernal is another JUCO transfer. Had a .458 ob pct. his last year.

Krisjon Wilkerson, another transfer is a power guy. Hit .341 with 11 homers and 58 RBI last year. Was a JUCO all American.

And how can I forget probably our top blue chipper......

Andrew Benintendi: Named 2013 ACBA/Rawlings National High School Player of the Year and First Team All-American after hitting .564 with 12 home runs, 57 RBI and 38 stolen bases … Earned Second Team All-America honors from Baseball America and MaxPreps … Selected as the Gatorade Ohio Baseball Player of the Year following his senior season … Twice named the Division III Player of the Year by the Cincinnati Enquirer … Earned All-State honors three times in his high school career and was a four-time First Team All-Cincinnati Hills League honoree … Holds the Ohio high school career record with 199 career runs scored, ranks second with 213 career hits, 5th with 166 career RBI, eighth with a .542 career batting average and 12th with 112 career stolen bases … Also played basketball in high school, averaging 25.5 points per game in his senior season to earn Division III Co-Player of the Year from the Cincinnati Enquirer

I don't expect much of the younger Baxendale.

Position Players:

C - Grayson Greiner
1B - Kyle Martin
2B - Max Schrock
3B/LF - Joey Pankake (Played SS his first 2 seasons but will most likely play at 3rd this season b/c it's where he's projected to play in the pros)
CF - Tanner English
RF - Connor Bright

Starting Rotation:

LHP - Jordan Montgomery
LHP - Jack Wynkoop

Really excited to see Monty this season on Friday nights, when he was healthy last season dude was unhittable before he hurt his elbow against Clemson. He came back later in the year but wasn't the same lower velocity on his FB, off speed wasn't as sharp.

Think the toughest series this year will be @Vandy, luckily we don't have to play LSU, A&M, or State so the schedule is very very favorable.

Auburn will have a super young pitching staff. We bring back very little in terms of starters but we played everyone last year. I think we will be better because CJP was a little bit of cancer for the team last year. We definitely have more talent on thus years team than last.

I expect to make the SEC tournament this year, a super regional next year, and Omaha the year after.

In a somewhat related note. I expect a natty in softball within the next 3 years.
