Milb.com is your friend. Lindsey Crosby works for SI and does a ton for minor league ball on Twitter.

Great, thank you. I am a little familiar with him from his weekly appearances on Locked On with Zac. Will check it out.

It's preseason but AU lost both games in the exhibition to bama Friday night. Two 7 inning games. Lost 5-2 and 10-0.

Game 1 - Will Cannon gave up 5 in the first inning of the first game, including 3 hr. Next 6 pitchers only allowed 4 singles the rest of the way. Looks like AU only had 4 hits with Irish having two of them.

Game 2 - AU had 1 hit in the last inning to avoid a no hitter. bama scored 10 off 7 hits.

Haven't found much on the pitching stats but exhibition or not, only having 5 hits in 14 innings is pretty bad.

Alright, I guess it's around the time we talk about fall ball.

First, I updated the thread with the new SEC schedule and the fall ball roster. I don't know when our OOC schedule will be announced, but I'm hoping we play in a tournament hosted somewhere nice.

This year, we're pretty stacked, the incoming classes are great and HCT is a good recruiter. Incoming Freshman (yes that includes the redshirts) and the Sophomores are god damn good. However this kinda leads to a problem: inexperience and wobbly starts and we kinda saw that @ Bama. Game 1, we flashed a little bit of the talent against them, and it was pretty close. I don't know what happened during Game 2, slow start matched with inexperience did all the talking, I suppose

We weren't the only ones that looked not that good in our fall game, Vandy also looked not that impressive and their hauling in a new class as well.

This year, the SEC will be pretty god damn tough. Alabama looks good with their new HC and staff, and I guess they finally found out that Buchanan wasn't right for the job. Georgia rebounded by hiring Wes Johnson, the pitching coach at LSU, and is doing a good job at recruiting. I think the Mississippi schools rebound as well.

Those are my thoughts

Auburn is playing Troy at Toyota Field in Huntsville on March 12th. Really nice venue to watch a game. I just snagged 6 seats directly behind the home dugout for $17 a ticket

People fought hard to keep this thread pinned in the offseason. Crickets for months. Softball has already played their first games and still crickets.

That's a disappointing start for softball, but this is the baseball thread.
