| Official Adam4848 Baseball Preview Feb 11th (SEC Preview) *PAGE 25* (Posted on 2/1/13 at 6:25 am)
February is here -Everything you will read in my preview is "my" opinion and of course everyone is entitled to his/her own. As many of you know the main reason I do the preview is to simply get out a brief feel and in depth look about the team to the fans who don't get a chance to see them or the ones who live out of state etc... -The lineup I predict is based on what I have seen thus far and may very well change in the coming weeks of spring practice leading to opening day… Enjoy. Feb 1st-C (Ty Ross) *PAGE 1* Feb 2nd-1B (Mason Katz) *PAGE 6* Feb 3rd-2B (JaCoby Jones) *PAGE 8* Feb 4th-SS (Alex Bregman) *PAGE 10* Feb 5th-3B (Christian Ibarra) *PAGE 12* Feb 6th-OF (Raph Rhymes, Chris Sciambra, and Laid/Stevenson/McMullen) *PAGE* 14 Feb 7th-DH (Tyler Moore) *PAGE* 18 Feb 8th-SP (Aaron Nola, Ryan Eades, Brent Bonvillain) *PAGE 21* Feb 9th-RP (Nick Rumbelow, Chris Cotton, Joey Bourgeois, Will LaMarche) *PAGE 23* Feb 10th-Pro Prospects (Each class) *PAGE 24* Feb-11th-Quick SEC Preview and Record Preview *PAGE 25*

HEIGHT: 6'2" WEIGHT: 208 lbs. CATCHER Ty Ross Jr.* Chris Chinea Fr. Michael Barash Fr. Exactly three years ago Ty Ross was a reigning all American beginning his senior year of high school in Naples, Florida with a dream of playing professional ball. In two weeks Ross will be named the starter for his third and probable final season at LSU as he hopes to etch LSU’s 7th national championship trophy into history. Not one player on the current roster has improved his draft stock as much as Ty has over the course of the last three years. Ross came to school in 2010 as an undrafted freshman and with another solid year he could go anywhere from rounds 5-15 in the upcoming draft in June. If there is one thing Tiger fans don’t need to fret over it’s what kind of defense will come from the catcher position. Ross will be as good of a defender in the SEC as anyone this coming spring and with another improving year at the plate would be a probable All-American selection. Ross has always been a defensive specialist but his power numbers may jump this year depending on how selective he is at the plate, as he’s gotten much stronger since his freshman campaign. I see him hitting anywhere from 6-8 in the lineup. If there’s one weakness for Ross it’s straight line speed, but that’s not necessarily an issue with big bodied catchers. Chris Chinea and Michael Barash, are two highly touted freshman, both coming from the state of Florida. Chinea has as much raw power as anyone on the current roster and may see time as a potential backup at other infield positions if there is a need. Barash actually decided to skip the draft his senior year and enroll early at LSU, another talented kid who Mainieri may bring along slowly in his first year as he comes accustomed to college pitching. Power------50 Hitting------55 Speed------35 Fielding----65 Arm---------65 *Scale 20-Lowest, 50-Average, 80-Top of the Charts* Strength-Defense Weakness-Point to point speed
