I agree on pitchers needing to develop and LSU having less talent than in 23. If LSU is the only team who finished above MSU who has less talent in 24 then where will Lemo finish? does he press up hard and finish 10th or maybe strain for 9th place? I am still having issues understanding what Lemo will do different than the past 2 seasons.

Well, the sentiment here is that we return a helluva lot and that is why we should be improved.

Offense/Defense- we return 1st base Hines, 2nd base Larry, SS Mershon, LF Jordan, and Catcher Highfill. We have upgraded at 3rd base with the Memphis trans so the infield will be pretty good. Now the questions are what do we get from Hugesak in CF? Who plays RF and DH? We have quality signees at SS and 1B (Cupp/Stevens) with the 1B kid a candidate at DH- he is supposed to be the next Hines. I think we have Chance and Downs returning- so they factor in also. Strong top of the line with questions at the bottom.

Pitching? My rotation would be:

Fri- Loftin
Sat- Holcombe
Sunday- Ligon
Midweek- Siary
Closer- Loo

Relief- Simmons, Dohm, Auger, Purdue, Tapper, Davis, Forsythe, Cheatham
True Freshmen- Grant/Dotson/Walsh....what can these guys give us? Grant and Dotson are pretty highly rated and should contribute. Dotson really needs to help with him being a Lefty.

To me- thats a regional team 2 seed at worst
