re: Bama Baseball 33-24 (13-17) (2023-24)

Snell pitched 4 innings giving up 4 hits but did shut them out. Moza, Buchanan( don’t know if he got an out) and Davis , we count on all of them for weekends , did not pitch well IMO. Not here to argue with you on the eliteness of our staff but they didn’t pitch well

Adams has been getting better and better. Like his potential

Yea. Hoping Hess can have a good start and set the tone

Completely off topic but can someone explain to me why they brought in the high school kid who graduated early? It caused guys who have been on the team for multiple years to get cut. He didn’t get the same type of strength training and you can tell. He looks like a high school kid. During the practice games he was getting smoked. Why did they bring him to campus early? You’d have to assume he’s getting paid a pretty penny to come and not play his senior year plus forgo any chance of being drafted out of high school.

Maybe referring to Ariston Veasey? I’m guessing he’s headed for a redshirt since he hasn’t seen action so far this season. I’m not sure which player he caused to move on - maybe another player who was looking to redshirt? I think a team typically carries up to 5 redshirts max and they can’t be receiving any part of a baseball scholarship if I recall correctly.

Connor Ball is one who got grey shirted and I know he didn’t have great stats but still surprised you’d do that for a kid who isn’t ready for college ball much less SEC.

I’m not familiar with the deep inner workings of roster management but Connor is still on the team per rolltide.com and neither he nor Ariston appear to be playing this season.

Weather doesn’t look promising for Tuesday’s home game vs Samford but if Mother Nature changes her mind, you can bring your dog to The Joe. Details and waivers in the link below:
