What will the roster look like for 2018?

Yeah, heard that, during the stRangers game. He was introduced to everyone today, and was just interviewed during the game.
Hey CUDA, your Strangers are back to .500 and only a game out of the 2nd WC. What I say about a month ago? TX will make the playoffs and win 90+ games. Y'all are getting healthy as the 'Stros are losing starters like BAMA threw WP's. TX still has a legit shot at the AL West.
Well Suchey signed with the Royals, so that should help out scholarship situation a bit and hurt our potential pitching staff next year.

I definitely don't have "high hopes" for next year after Goof was fired this late in the year and CBB not having much time to make an impact on this incoming class. I do expect us to rail the barn in state for next years class though. I'm sick of seeing big names leave for other places like the barn, Vandy and MSU. Of course there is no way we get all the top kids because of the draft and lottery scholarships, but we do put out good talent in state every year. The draft and signees at top colleges prove that.
I hate we cancelled our camps this summer. Really will set us behind on recruiting with the kids who are going to be Soph/Jr's this fall. I have a feeling the Sr's probably already have committed but, the Jr's are the ones who will be committing soon.
I don't think the on-campus prospect camps are nearly as important to recruiting as they were 10, maybe even 5 years ago. The way travel/select baseball has exploded has kind of overtaken everything else during the summer.
Apparently we have signed a pitcher from Hoover who went 11-0 with a .57 era for the coming season? Was he a late bloomer or just weighing his options? Regardless, either CBB saw a big hole in our pitching going forward, or he at least has a plan for the roster for next year.

Somewhat of a late bloomer. I mean he was sort of a known commodity in that he had committed to Wallace-Hanceville (which is a solid JUCO program) before this past season. However, he took a huge leap forward this year and was just a stud. There were a lot of teams trying to add him as a spring signee.
Yes a lefty that put up great numbers in 7A baseball which is no joke.

I'd assume he is either getting no money OR more kids than just Lumpkin have decided to leave. Last I heard we were still over 11.7 by 3-4 scholarships. (Possibly promised $$$ effective 2019.)
I'm quite sure this is the case. Regardless, he still may not have gotten any money (at least for next season, as you mentioned).
I was told last night that as of yesterday only one player besides Lumpkin had decided to transfer. Since this player has not yet made an announcement I won't name him but, not a big loss at all. Actually a good money savings.
No. I'd assume once the CWS is over we might see some additional movement. Not sure how much interaction CBB can have with the team right now. But, I expect some on $$$ will be told "you don't have a roster spot". Now, the kid can keep his $ as that is guaranteed, being on the team is not. Those kids will likely leave.
Good to see the situation seems to be resolved without warfare.
The Manning kid has some nice numbers, he batted .412 and had an OBP of .536 in 153 at-bats.
And no errors!

Rumor on another board is that Love is also transferring. Don't know how true it is, but he's also the guy that has been told about many of the guys who have already transferred (Webb, Carey, Trousdale)
If he does, maybe it's similar to the Trousdale where it's just a tough situation due to a certain coach's (deliberate) mismanagement of the numbers and that his goal is to be back here next year.
