2025 NCAA Baseball Transfer Portal

[StarkVegasSteve]

I’ll say this, even without anything else as far as a legit starter, you have to like where our rotation is at. Pruitt, Pico, and Grant (if Grants is as advertised). That’s legit there… Need a couple more bullpen arms to make sure on the back end.

If Lemonis could land just one BIG bay for the middle of the order I would feel Much better. We don’t have that one guy who can change the game with one swing.

We're on the Sanford kid from UNO. He would be that. We're also still heavily on Chase Hungate and Cade Fisher. Both of those guys could also factor into the weekend rotation

Jacob Pruitt. Pitcher from Indiana St. Will be a Friday night candidate for us.

Huge get right there. Weekend starter and big arm.

The needle is moving.

Finally getting some momentum

Finally getting some momentum

Now the question is what will you do with that momentum. I would say the last two days have been the best two days of the portal era from a perception standpoint for Lemonis and Co. Now you have to capitalize on that perception. You need a Fisher, Hungate, Sanford type player to kick the hype into overdrive.

Jacob Pruitt. Pitcher from Indiana St. Will be a Friday night candidate for us.

Not sure he can handle the load of Friday, although his stuff is Friday good. Friday is a long innings guy and that's not what Pruitt really is. But he can chunk it! I think our Friday starter is still in the portal.

Lemonis's beach trip ended.**

Solid get is a solid get. I still want to win. I heard pitching was picking up and Pruitt isn't even the one I heard, so I don't think we're done. I could see three more arms if we hit on the best ones. I was surprised we couldn't pull some guys with what Parker did.

Yeah Pruitt is just the first, couple of others on the way.

Cooter is giving up, he's surrendering, co'mon man.

This dude is not Friday night. 13 appearance, only 5 starts and only 41 innings this past year. Seems like a #3 or Long Relief.

Nothing wrong with getting a good Long-Relief guy, just seems like a leap to say Friday night or even Saturday night. He was neither at Indiana State. He was their 1st bullpen guy. Was shaky in his two last outings in the regionals.

Nuance (Edit): He was their Saturday guy for the first three weeks. Good starts.

I believe he was their numbers two and then he had an injury. That's why he was our seven weeks and then came back for bullpen only duty.

This is correct. The kid has elite stuff

He was their Friday night guy before injury. He was giving them 6 innings and around 10 Ks. That is exactly what Cjintje gave you this year and he would have been the Friday guy without the emergence of Stephen.

And we are not done.

The injuries are the issue. He's had a couple and that's why I said being a Friday guy could be a problem, Stuff is good, can he consistently give you 5 or 6 innings is the question. There are still some arms out there. I don't think Fisher is the answer for Friday but he's a weekend arm. Hungate is bullpen.
Add another bat and three pitchers IMO. Pitching determines how good we can be. I think the lineup will be an average SEC lineup regardless unless Mershon is back. I think we've got a 5-8 spot SEC team regardless if we get the arms. We aren't top 4 in the SEC as we should be.

Can we expect any news today?

It's a hot dog holiday, Lemonis is busy.**

I agree on Pruitt his stuff is Friday night stuff for sure, but the injuries are a question. I wouldn't start him as the Friday guy but I believe he's a weekend rotation guy for sure.

Mitchell Sanford to Ole Miss.

Kinda embarrassing to lose a battle to that sinking ship. Maybe we can still land the UK outfielder. We're still missing an impact bat

May be telling on how we feel about getting Nori to school though.
