LSU is currently better than Florida in the majority of statistical categories so for a college baseball team I would have to take LSU over Florida. Not sure how a pro scout would dispute the facts. Now if you wanted his opinion on which team he feels has more potential pro players then we could go get his input.

Whether that's true or not has nothing to do with Florida being a formidable hitting team 1 through 9. Zunino and Tucker are studs. After those two its not like the rest of the lineup is tearing the conference up.

They all have the potential to hit very well. They are still one of the better hitting teams we will face all year. Keep in mind they have played a much tougher schedule than just about every other SEC team.

yes, if LSU can produce at the plate an average Eades performance is enough to win this game. The need for him to be exceptional comes only if our offense is not producing.

Winds are howling here in Central Florida. Forcast has winds in G'ville ENE 15-18 mph. That would make it blowing across from left field to right field. Left-handed batters (Tucker) could tee off.

It wouldn't surprise me if fla continues to hit the ball like they did late Friday and yesterday. They have broken out of their slump which doesn't bode well for us. Consider they have a decent pitching performance and hit like they have the last 2 games we better knock the socks out of it today or we lose the series.
