College Baseball Side Story Today
(1) Team rosters are now unlimited, with game rosters now 32 from 27 players
(2) Scholarships can be smaller than 25%
(3) SEC requested 2 additional scholarships (11.7 to 13.7) was rejected (Vandy laughed, probably)
I wonder if teams will just red-shirt 20 players, especially developmental pitchers, workout and get Rooker-size. For pitchers, MSU typically has about 700 innings per season and about 8 pitchers get 70% of the innings and 10 pitchers get 95% of the innings. Therefore, a 20 arm staff will leave many kids with no significant work and with only 3 coaches, how much attention can be given. The 3 conference starters will total up about 270 of the 700 innings.
Also, I wonder if any non-elite JC transfers would rather get another year as an Ace in JC rather than pitching 2 innings at a D1 school in 2021. They have the additional COVID eligibility. But, you probably have lots of HS kids looking at JC instead of being in the 50-man herd of a D1 team. Silly idea, could we trust Meridan and Hinds CC's to hold some Freshman, give them ABs and Innings, our farm clubs.
Man, what a mess for College Baseball and these kid's life plans.
