    Yeah, I saw Kendall Rogers tweet on Hatcher and Cerantola. Both of those guys could be huge for us next year. I hate to lose Lovett too. He?s got a really good arm.

    Question is, are we going to pick up players that are better? Hopefully coming off the year we just had we can do that but I guess it remains to be seen?.

    Are all of the portal players dead set on leaving, or just seeing what their options are before deciding?

    Based on the above we currently have 44 players vying for 40 spots. If all 5 draft risks don't come (which I think is unlikely), we don't have a lot of space for transfers. I'm sure we will get some, I just wouldn't count on some huge influx based on our current numbers.

    The ones I've seen that are in the portal are probably dead set on leaving, especially the pitchers. Kace Gardner is the only one I could see us maybe trying to convince to stay since I don't know what our options at catcher are for next year.

    We have LoTan, Hancock, and Gray Bane for next year. We should be Ok but if a walk-on wanted to join that would be fine.

    What are the current thoughts on the draft risks for the top 5. I don't know anything about either but would be great to get one of Kohn or Bruns.

    I've heard that people around Mobile and UMS Wright are saying that it's going to take a strong offer to get Bruns to go straight to Pro Ball. Walling, McCants, and Wood are all gone out of all likelihood. We should get Kohn. I think we get Hines as well.

    IF Luke gets drafted, he?s gone. That much I know. Some say he won?t get drafted because he really doesn?t have a position to play but with the the walks combined with a low K rate someone is gonna take him?..

    I know for a fact Hines is a draft risk. It’s not expected but if the asking number is hit there will a be a decision to make

    Any MSU Alum that runs a business, pony up and sponsor some of these kids to convince them it's worthwhile to come to MSU instead of the draft.

    Halfway joking...
