After last night, what are some more baseball lineups you'd like to see this weekend? Here's mine:

1. LH 1B Tre Morgan
2. RH RF Dylan Crews
3. RH 2B Cade Doughty
4. LH DH Cade Beloso
5. RH SS Zach Arnold
6. LH CF Brody Drost rotating with LH CF Mitchell Sanford
7. RH LF Gavin Dugas
8. RH 3B Jordan Thompson
9. RH C Alex Milazzo rotating with RH C Jake Wyeth

Maybe swap 6/7 spots to space out lefties a little more in lineup.

Can Crews play CF and give Drost a shot in RF?
I like Sanford too.

I think you have it nailed. That’s our strongest 9 rn in the correct batting order.

Amazing how a few games change everything. After the first 2 games, this team can't hit and now we are struggling to get hot bats in the lineup.

Definitely good problems to have.

Love it when we have to make tough decisions on who plays. It’s a good problem to have. Brody needs to be somewhere in the lineup

Some thought vomit on the lineups.

The Milazzo/Wyeth situation reminds me a lot of Papierski/Romero in 2016. I wouldn't be surprised to see a Friday/Saturday starter and a Sunday starter, with midweek being a coin toss. That's unless Wyeth simply takes the position outright.

It looks like the Bianco experiment is over. 0 for 5 with 3 strikeouts.

I agree with what others have said. Sanford hasn't done anything to lose a start, but Drost has earned a shot in his limited at bats. (Am I the only one occasionally having trouble with who is who between Safford, Sanford, and Cranford?)

Does Gio have a spot on the field when he comes back?

It's wild that LSU is having a problem with too many players having success at the plate early in the season.

I'm just curious why everyone is keeping Beloso in the 4 hole right now?

I'm not crapping on Beloso, as I really like him and I am pulling for him to be successful; but right now his OPS is 6th best of the starters and his slugging is 8th best. While he does appear to have a little better approach at the plate this season (7 BB to 1 K), he is not hitting that well in the early going and when he does hit, it's not that hard (only 3 singles & 1 RBI).

Dugas has appeared to start putting it together the last 2 games. While he does have some more swing and miss in him, when he connects, it is going to be a shot and currently is better than Beloso in avg., slg., OPS, and RBI.

I want Travinski to get at bats some how. Every time he's come up he's hit the ball hard

When everyone is healthy i would love to see

1. Morgan 1B
2. Crews RF
3. Beloso DH
4. Travinski C
5. Drost LF
6. Arnold SS
7. Doughty 2B
8. Thompson 3B
9. Gio CF

I think that gives us the most power/best overall lineup we can possibly field.

It remains to be seen how good Travinski is behind the plate. I just think we should give him and Wyeth a shot back there.

ETA: maybe switch Gio and Thompson so you don't have 3 Righties consecutively.

I like having speed and power at the top. Really liking this team (SEC is stacked too) - Crews is an absolute stud ball player.

1. LH 1B Tre Morgan
2. RH RF Dylan Crews
3. LH DH Cade Beloso
4. RH LF Gavin Dugas
5. RH SS Zach Arnold
6. RH 2B Cade Doughty
7. LH CF Brody Drost rotating with LH CF Mitchell Sanford
8. RH 3B Jordan Thompson
9. RH C Alex Milazzo rotating with RH C Jake Wyeth

When Gio caomes back.

1. LH Gio
2. RH RF Dylan Crews
3. LH DH Cade Beloso
4. RH LF Gavin Dugas
5. LH 1B Tre Morgan
6. RH SS Zach Arnold
7. RH 2B Cade Doughty
8. RH 3B Jordan Thompson
9. RH C Alex Milazzo rotating with RH C Jake Wyeth

Serious question, why does everyone want to see Wyeth be the guy that rotates with Milazzo and not Tranvinski?

I don't know much about Wyeth other than that he's a Juco guy that started out at Baylor.

If I remember correctly wasn't Travinski one of the top catchers in the country coming out of high school?

Again, not a knock on Wyeth. Just trying to see if there's something I'm missing or don't know.

I believe we're facing 3 LH starters this weekend. Might not see Drost as quickly as we'd like to, unless it's in place of Sanford or when one of the starters gets run.
