    BB scrimmage notes from twitter

    -Pico Kohn was 90-93. Of course that would be for a very short stint, but that is encouraging. Hopefully it isn?t straight and flat.
    -Dakota Jordan hit a moon shot over the lounge in left.
    -Hines hit a bomb.

    Apparently Jordan's bomb went 460. Incredible.

    Definitely big for the back end of the pen.

    Here's my opening day lineup:

    1. Larry, 2B, R
    2. Ledbetter, CF, L
    3. Slate, 3B, R
    4. Hines, 1B, L
    5. Jordan, LF, R
    6. Kellum, RF, L
    7. Downs, DH, R
    8. Hancock, C, L
    9. Mershon, SS, S

    ** This is not my prediction of the opening day lineup. This is my lineup and it is correct. **

    Better hope we hit a ton of bombs with that lineup. Station to station baseball if you don?t have bombs with 3-8.

    If the lineup is good enough to force a 7th year guy like Hancock to 8th in lineup, we should be damn solid

    Color me skeptical. That woulda been a top 15 in distance in mlb last season.

    I don't get it. Downs is a sub 6.5 guy. Jordan is a 6.44 guy. Larry, Ledbetter, and Mershon can all run. That's 5 guys out of 9 that can steal bases. Even Kellum moves well for a big guy. I'll also set the O/U at 100 HR's.

    113 exit velo. On the right launch angle, that's will do it. Gaut has thrown out the Bo Jackson/Kirby Puckett comparison on Jordan.

    Hancock won't be batting 8th. That's for sure. I'm just posting what I would do.

    Color me unimpressed. Blaze Jordan was hitting those at 14 years old.😳

    As much as some would like for it to happen, Mershon is not beating out Forsythe

    In batting practice. He never did it on a 95 mph heater. Jordan has STUPID power. I am telling you all now, he is going to hit the lofts more than one time this year.

    I think we are going to hit and defend. It's all on the pitching. We don't have that one guy on the weekends who is a stud like we usually do.

    I’m surprised we are still trying to force Forsythe out of the lineup. It would take Mershon getting into a game and immediately going on an offensive tear that lasted for awhile.

    Jordan is built like a tank, so I’m sure he has the ability to hit some tape measure type shots.

    If the offense is there, a “johnnie whole staff” approach to the pitching side might carry us a good ways if several of the pitchers can do the job asked of them and not walk a small city every game.

    Just a smooth pitching wedge.
