LSU doesn't have the bats to make it to Omaha this year, IMO. What's crazy is if they did manage to get there, they have the pitching to dominate the CWS.
I am so tired of hearing this. First off the unknown does not equal not good. Secondly if the last 5 years have proven anything great pitching can overcome average hitting as long as the hitting is timely. Any team out of the top half of the league can get hot at the right time and make Omaha.

You should probably stop watching sports then. Experience is a factor at every level.

You know who tends to have "timely" hitting? Experienced guys that have seen a lot of at bats.

No one here has said different. Won't =/= can't.
I know a lot of people on this board struggle with that concept though.

OP's title should be niche sport preseason polls

Errol Robinson on first team? Nick Banks on second team? Credibility shot.

When was the last time a team like LSU this year was ranked so high with 1 position player returning? Talk about rank on reputation sheesh!
Reputation helps, but LSU is also returning two pitchers with All-American numbers.

Thats groovy man, thanks for making the effort. Will you do this weekly during the season?

Probably not. I usually just post whenever I feel like it and not set a schedule.

This is a thing? I don't get it. He had a solid season at catcher.

Yeah I don't get people saying LSU wont have any hitting. We really don't have any idea. Saying that our hitting will suck is just as ignorant as saying it will be great. And how many runs a game did we need to win the super regional last year?

3?

was a pretty solid catcher for us last year, not sure what's so funny
I think he is a great kid and a really good story about perserverence. He worked and improved after leaving LSU.

I agree. Jake Fraley will get em out the park often I think, and with the pitching staff, 1 solo homerun may be enough to win quite a few games. Also, LSU does not replace, we reload. We have alot of JUCO transfers who have hit against decent pitching, and while I do not believe we will be playing Gorilla Ball this year, I do think we will get guys on base, and across the plate.
