Not really. We had the best offense in college baseball. That alone is top 10 worthy. We will probably have the top offense yet again. It has been our linchpin the past few years.

Pitching is always the question mark. Outside of Pallette, there really isn't anyone proven to be a quality starter. Wiggins, Hagen Smith, Heston Tole all have the talent, but haven't proven anything as far as weekend starter status in the SEC.

Like said before, Matt Hobbs will have to earn his paycheck this year. There is plenty of arm talent, but can he get the guys to put it all together?

Man did the offense disappear coming down the homestretch though. Slavens and Franklin turned into strikeout machines. Really hope the offense gets its mojo back, especially with the new guys coming on board.

Someone always makes a huge leap forward on the pitching staff. Last year is was kopps. In my mind before last year kopps and ramage were the same guy.

Not sure who it’ll be but probably one of the guys you mentioned or maybe noland or starks. I guarantee you they’ve thrown thousands of pitches on the simulator optimizing everything.
