    My points being made, I do like these freshmen position players. They are what our base talent SHOULD look like.

    MSU's SHOULD be able to recruit at such a level that every year we've got 1-2 Major League position players in our lineup with the Allen & Rowdy Jordan types making up the average talent level of the team.

    I think even if Wes had been hired earlier instead of late because of Butch then we would have been in a lot better shape. I think Wes trying to rush his system was the biggest issue.

    Well Wes must really hate MSU then cause he got 8 dudes put on the shelf in one year.

    I know that about 4 years ago, Paul Mainieri began making Canny recruit small, fast guy & went with a defense first / power 2nd approach. I think that same thought process influenced Cohen.

    Jordan, Allen, Foscue, Westburg, Anderson, Hatcher. Four of those guys were drafted out of high school and all of these guys will be drafted in the top 10 rounds their junior year.

    And he's going to have about 8 of them drafted this year at Arkansas. Wes wasn't here long enough to screw it up.

    The TJs are a product of the team having 3 pitching coaches, with different programs, in about a 8 month span.

    Maybe. Again, they are nice players & what our base talent SHOULD look like.

    None of those guys will go in the top 3 rounds, where future ML position players go.

    Please don't make me have a stroke by getting behind and walking the leadoff guy right after an inning where we score.

    Rep given. I absolutely agree. We do not do enough of the little, ordinary baseball things well enough to be a really good team. Besides pitching problems, it is like we have mental blocks at times. We do not work counts when we should, to get a pitch count up (swing away on fist couple of pitches). We make many unforced errors when base running. We can't bunt runners over when we need to. etc. Those are just killers against decent teams. You can get by with some of that when you have a top 10 offense, but we do not.
