-Pico Kohn was 90-93. Of course that would be for a very short stint, but that is encouraging. Hopefully it isn?t straight and flat.
-Dakota Jordan hit a moon shot over the lounge in left.
-Hines hit a bomb.

Dohm w a good outing. That's big
Here's my opening day lineup:
1. Larry, 2B, R
2. Ledbetter, CF, L
3. Slate, 3B, R
4. Hines, 1B, L
5. Jordan, LF, R
6. Kellum, RF, L
7. Downs, DH, R
8. Hancock, C, L
9. Mershon, SS, S
** This is not my prediction of the opening day lineup. This is my lineup and it is correct. **
I'm pretty excited about this season!
I’m surprised we are still trying to force Forsythe out of the lineup. It would take Mershon getting into a game and immediately going on an offensive tear that lasted for awhile.
Jordan is built like a tank, so I’m sure he has the ability to hit some tape measure type shots.
If the offense is there, a “johnnie whole staff” approach to the pitching side might carry us a good ways if several of the pitchers can do the job asked of them and not walk a small city every game.
Some of y’all are crazy wanting Forsythe out. Dude has done nothing but defend at an elite level and consistently get better at the plate. Y’all forget dude was a legit freshman when he was thrown into the lineup cause Kam James couldn’t catch a cold at SS. If he continues to get better, why the hell would we want to replace him cause he has one of the best gloves in the SEC at SS.

Dakota Jordan and Ross Highfill both came in with some holes that can be exploited by the opposition. All freshmen have that issue when you get to this level of play. But these guys can overcome it quickly. They are both very good athletes and they are both advanced physically (size and strength). They aren’t physically built like freshmen. Their size, strength, and athleticism will make up for some of their inexperience and rawness.
How long will it take for some of you to complain that we aren?t bunting enough?
Hancock will be in the line-up. Lemonis may have to find ways to get players enough swings if we swing like we can potentially, but I don't see Hancock not in the lineup barring a Josh Hatcher type of collapse. He stabilizes the lineup, doesn't strikeout, will do the things at the plate to move/score runners and gets on base a lot.
