Gotta find the next Dollander or Delucia in the portal. I’m all for letting marginal players go and trying to upgrade through the portal and NIL.

From what I've heard Starks is too slow to the plate and can't hold runners then the wild pitch tendencies. Also the 9 hits and 10 walks in 11 2/3 innings pitched this past year in limited work. As for Tole batters hit .339 against him this year. .339 was by far the worst on the team for a pitcher who threw double-digit innings, huge regression for him. For reference Adamiak was next closest at .264. I know a one point in the season DVH was asked about Tole and said slider only pitcher.


Who is recruiting pitchers that can't get it done. Jesus, look at Pleiman, what a waste.

I appreciate your input.

Yep, that's the key. The days of guys staying for years without getting playing time are over.

If you're not good enough you leave, and don't let the door hit ya.

50/50 portal to recruiting these days.

OM just rode a first year JUCO to a natty.

In baseball there will always be guys like Pleimann on the roster as long as not everyone is getting scholarship money. Have to get pitching from somewhere. Maybe when everyone is on an NIL deal that won’t be the case

Pleimann graduated this year will retire and won't return next year.

Ultimate is right. Portal has made it where you perform and stick around or don't get playing time and off you go.

Every offseason is roster building and reloading as Muss does in basketball.

Wes Johnson to LSU as Pitching Johnson. This is a huge hire for them. I'm surprised he's coming down from the majors.
That's probably the worst news so far.

Holy shite. No matter who plays LF next season, thy will automatically be that much better offensively. He and Ramage are two names I'm so thankful to not see on the roster next year.

This doesn't fit the narrative that I've concocted in my mind that the wheels are falling off.

I had to wait a couple of days before I listened to Bubba's interview on The Buzz because I was so depressed after how the season ended.

Anyway, I always feel a little better after listening to Bubba. He was saying how it's possible that Noland and Pallette might come back next year, which would have our pitching stuff somewhere between Chuck Norris and the only thing that's undefeated against men.

Next year might be the year we do it, or I'll p0rn bomb the frick out of tRant.

No idea how good the guy is but we got rid of two D1 catchers to take a guy that couldn't cut it Arkansas State. Hopefully he's the backup.

Who said they were D1 catchers?

Neither was going to start for us at catcher.

This guy if he doesn't workout at catcher could be a big target at 1B - 6'3 220lbs.

I trust the guys making millions per year to manage this over our message board posters

Everyone wanted the transfer portal, it will be a new team every year. Players who can't cut it will be out

More positives for the portal than against it.
