    If you want to get fired up about the future

    Watch Cann's post game interview from tonight.

    He talked about how LSU was built to win the SEC and then he says "we're going to build that here too."

    Edit to say- based on the interview I think he wants to kick Georgia's ass badly on Tuesday.

    It's not hard to get fired up about the future:
    - we have one of the best young coaches in the country
    -there is no way we lose 8 arms and kick 2 players off mid season again
    -we already have a solid class coming in
    -we have some solid pieces to build around for next season
    -we have a team that almost scrapped their way to an SEC title, who will be out to prove it wasn't a fluke

    I think this is the beginning of a great run of MSU baseball.

    We are also about to have the best stadium in college baseball also which will help recruiting. It just feels like we are about to take the next step.

    It was an awesome interview! Dude is a winner and he's gonna be relentless until it's the way he wants it! I mean look at what he did with half a team this year. I know the finish wasn't what everyone wanted but Cann is to be commends for having this team In position to win a title in the last series of the yeast! Future is bright'

    I'm most excited about 5 maybe 6 returning pitchers from injury. Those guys are talented and to add them to Pilk, Denver, and others makes the future alot brighter before we even add the recruiting class

    Most definitely got to have plenty of pitching. Getting those guys back, provided they're healthy, will make us better immediately. Be almost like having an extra class of pitchers come in.

    I'm with you. I think the lack of pitching this season will lead to huge pitching depth the next few seasons. Denver McQuary , for example, might not have 5 innings pitched this year if not for injuries...and now he's shown that he has filthy stuff, and if he can throw strikes he'll be hard to keep out of the rotation or will at least give us a Lights out midweek guy. So instead of having to break in bullpen guys...we already got experience for guys like Gordon, Barlow, Ashcraft, and even some really good signs from Parker Ford lately. Add that to Self, Price, and Rigby and you've got a lot of reliable arms and some potential starters to add to Pilk & McQuary. That's not even mentioning the injured guys returning and any instant impact newcomers.

    Now let's make sure Gridley and Mangum return, and we'll at least have a core of guys that can swing it some....

    Mangum
    Gridley
    Stovall
    Macnamee
    Vansau

    Who is going to fill the rest of the lineup?

    Skelton
    Alexander
    ?

    If we were at a 3.80 ERA vs 4.80, that's a 5-10 win difference. Couldn't agree more.

    Not trying to be a smartass but what are the odds that these pitchers return to SEC form after a devastating injury?
    Who are some examples of our pitchers we have had with serious arm/elbow injuries who have returned to be bad asses?

    Lots of guys return now to top form from TJ. It just takes 16-20 months is all. They should be ready to go.

    Having Gridley, Stovall, and Magnum back in the middle would be huge for next year's team.

    Will be interesting.

    Will likely be hit or miss. Some guys can return in 12 months and possess 100% of their former stuff, command, & feel.

    Most return in 12 months with their stuff but lack the same feel or command. That usually returns in about 20 months.

    For this reason, my guess is that the majority of the TJ guys will return & help our bullpen where they can use their stuff in short stints.

    Even if they don't return to their prior form, if they can just throw strikes it will be a major improvement to what we saw this year.

    That really excited me a lot too. I think we would have won the SEC this year if most of those guys were healthy. You can't win the SEC with a first baseman and two outfielders getting major innings for you- and we almost did.
