Mainieri is not sure whether it’ll be Tuesday or Wednesday, but he said junior-college transfer Nick Coomes would get a start at catcher during one of the midweek games. Coomes is a Baton Rouge native and Catholic High product who transferred to LSU from LSU-Eunice, where he hit .359 with 13 home runs and 81 RBI last season.

More Catholic High kids on the field at once, the better IMO

Smith, Romero, Coomes = SHIP

Coomes looks like a thick dude that would have pop in his bat

Be nice if Coomes turns out a bat and decent glove to possibly start on Sundays and Midweek.

Pap is a stupid good defensive catcher, but man that bat is demoralizing when he comes up to the plate. It's still a young season and there isn't alot to go off of but I don't remember him batting great in summer league either.

But defense on those friday/saturday pitching duels will be imperative and unless Coomes has a ridiculous glove and arm, I don't see him moving in unless its on sundays.
