    Summer Ball

    Anyone know what pitchers are playing summer ball?? Also, heard one of the pitchers may be having surgery this summer, can anyone confirm? (not sure if this is confidential) With the loss of Peanut, Morgan, Smart, and a new catcher, that is the core of our SEC weekend pitching crew. Summer ball...

    Tuscaloosa News reporting that Andy Phillips will join staff

    First, I think hiring Andy will work out well. Having someone with college and major league experience will bode well with recruits and MLB scouts. Second, not knowing the issues, I don't think for one minute that Bunn left without some $$$ compensation; therefore, the baseball budget may not...

    Coach Wells returns to Coaching?

    I realize the comments are in fun; however, Wells did an outstanding job revitalizing the program. Like his style or not, "he won". I'm still not convinced the next 2 seasons will be very successful, outside of our weak OCC schedule. Fortunately, the West appears much weaker than the East...

    SEC programs on the downturn

    Interesting, 3 SEC teams on the declining list, with all 3 on the schedule. This won't help the RPI, especially with the weak OCC schedule.

    Draft casualties

    RoyD, I think you are right on but hope we are wrong and he goes higher; however, anything above round 15 will be a surprise to me. So much will depend on how well he is doing this summer using wood. Anyone know his stats over the summer?? Due to his small statue and perceived lack of power...

    Draft casualties

    JoJo, I think you are absolutely correct and he did struggle with on base %. Granted he was not very proficient last year. As a side note, I am not a family member or Townsend booster (only met him once last year) but simply relaying my conversation with a Pirate's scout and was surprised at...

    Draft casualties

    Re: Draft casualties - update on Jason Townsend I spoke with a Pittsburgh Pirates scout this weekend and he stated, after some minor mechanical changes, Jason Townsend's velocity is 94 - 96 and he is progressing very nicely. He commented, "not too bad for a 32nd round pick, we knew he could...

    Players for next year

    Reggie Golden - 2nd round - I certainly don't see him forgoing the $$$ and the opportunity. I don't think we will see much information on Reggie, until we get closer to the August deadline.
