Goforth has proven he has MLB quality pitches.

I dont believe it. His cutter is nice. He has no control over his slider and if he gets behind in the count and the hitter knows the fast ball is coming, it doesnt matter how fast it is. Plus he has zero endurance. He'd never be a starter. MLB scouts are looking for nasty shite from relievers and closers, but they're also looking for control. Goforth can control two pitches, his change up and fast ball.

If Morgan and Goforth come back, then youre right. We should be a top 25 team and pushing for omaha all season. If we lose them both, I dont think we'll be "really good", but we'll be better making it to Hoover and being a 2nd seeded team. Our defense will be vastly improved and so should our hitting, but I still dont think we'll be a regional hosting type team.


BUT....

If we do get David and Jake back we could be very special. Crouse, Goforth, and Wright would be one of the most complete starting rotations in the SEC and we would have Huber, Wahl, and Morgan in our bullpen. frickin sick pitching staff right there. We return almost all our postion players so our defense (our weakness this year) would be very much improved and we return 6 of our 9 hitters including 4 of our top 5. It could be special, but more than likely pank will be right and we'll just be mediocre, which would be an improvement.
