Baseball Lineup for MSU

[Johnson85]

I'm talking about his time this summer with Team Canada, his summer league team, and the recent scrimmage moreso than last season.

So assuming he hasn't figured it out between the summer and now, what are the options for the third weekend starter after Ginna and McLeod?

Probably Carlisle Koestler.

That's a far cry from 4-3 bottom 9 at the Box.

I don't want my closer to be a guy who might walk 2-3-4 in a row. And if he doesn't do this he'll be the Sunday starter.

Some major shoes to fill are the middle relievers that gave us huge clutch innings last year:

Leibelt, Cole Gordon, and White

This year we have lots of candidates but I?m not sure we will know this for sure until SEC play.

Eagan, Brock, a Freshman (Sims), and a JUCO (Schemper) is the MSU-Baseball thing to happen. We will get a Zac Neff/Leibelt/Harden/Girodo/Ross Mitchell from where we least expect it. This freshman class has amazing upside.

Price back to 2017 All American level would fill a huge need very nicely. We need a closer.

Ultimately, what I think we are hoping is that Cerantola gets it together amd is the Sunday guy and Koestler is the reliable mid inning eater. I think we will piece together mid week pitching until, hopefully, one of the young guys establishes himself as the starter in prep for a weekend role next year.

Following MS StateBaseballFan on facebook and he had some notes on today’s (Friday) scrimmage. LHP Jared Shemper did well as did RHP Chase Patrick who he has mentioned as continuing to impress. I have seen him mention Patrick before. I took note of it b/c Patrick is a name that I was not familiar with. I think he is a juco transfer who may not have pitched much in the fall (could be wrong on that though).

His write up on today’s scrimmage was very brief so not much info other than that.

I don't either. But I also don't think we have anyone that is obviously Jonathan Holder on this team too. Maybe someone will emerge.

That is definitely the hope. Especially since we're going to bring Ginn along slowly. We'll see how things play out OOC because I'm guessing Ginn will be ready by SEC play if all goes well on that front.
