 I almost stated that Kam ain't playing in the Outfield next year lol. I guess coming back to play 3rd is still an option but Alford will have a say in that. 1st or DH maybe? Or use him as a utility player. Some at 3rd, some in the Outfield, some at 1st. Or play him in RF & DH Kellum?

 He's very good defensively as well.

 Feel like he'd have a spot at 3B if he came back.
 
 But it just seems like we're preparing as if he won't be here and Alford and Downs will be the guys. They'll have some growing pains, but they'll get it done

 1st? Hines is playing first. Period.

							How good is Skenes at catching? Would he be our starting catcher in the games he's not pitching? Is that asking too much of him?

 Yeah that's to much to ask. Way to much wear and tear on not just arm but body too.

 No way that happens except if mid week game that he barely threw a lot on Friday.

 Probably so. Don't think our coaches would do it. He's a potential first round pitcher next year. He can DH though.

 Amazing isn't it? You know you don't get to be a head coach in the SEC without being ultra competitive and you know this season had to be embarrassing for him and I'm sure there were some heart to hearts he had with himself and his staff. I don't look for any repeats of this year(although a majority of this seasons issues were injuries to pitchers). The guy knows what he's doing.
