We'll have one of our best pitching staffs ever next year, but we need to replace about six or seven positions. We need some cool hands in there, especially in the infield.

lose almost the entire current line-up
Posted on 4/27/15 at 8:16 am to skullhawk
The high number of JUCO position players should be no shock.
It'll give the team a good balance of veteran presence with the current freshmen class.

I know it's early, but how many in this class do you see starting?
Posted on 4/27/15 at 9:13 am to skullhawk
Yeah, I think Fraley is the only player in the lineup who's not draft-eligible this year. We'll be losing a lot there, but the flip side is that our pitching will be crazy good next year.

stevenson and laird may both stay...everyone else gone
Posted on 4/27/15 at 9:27 am to Brageous
just some chatter from folks in Monroe...both Laird and Stevenson come from financially gifted families and a degree is important to them
Posted on 4/27/15 at 9:34 am to Captain Crown
i wouldn't take that to the bank but just saying there is a 50/50 shot right now that they will stay. obviously, if they get taken early then they gone
Posted on 4/27/15 at 9:35 am to redfieldk717
Would be huge to have them back. They'd be the cornerstone to this offense and outfield next season for sure.

I don't see Chinea leaving, he has no real position as of right now and he probably starts at C next season if he comes back which could help him out a lot. Playing 1B has done him no favors as far as position goes.
Posted on 4/27/15 at 10:16 am to thunderbird1100
yeah, wasn't thinking about chinea...i think pap starts at catcher next year purely for defensive purposes

I think Bryce Adams could start at 1B given he's a huge target over there that has gap power.
Ducote, Freeman, Wodfford, and Lochridge will all contend for starting gigs.
What the Tigers do have is an abundant amount of talent in Fraley, Byrd, Deichmann, Papierski, Beau Jordan, Bryce Jordan to go along with the incoming class. "IF" any guys like Laird, Stevenson or Chinea return then it will only add depth to the roster. However I'm not counting any of the three to return just yet.
Pitching is going to be one of the deepest in the nation for the next 2 years.

I think his offense will take a big step forward next year too. Freshman year is a hard adjustment for catchers. They have more to learn than everyone else.
