LSU Baseball and CPM have done some incredible things that seem to go unnoticed because of the lack of CWS Titles.

For example, improving hitters that are almost dead in the water and making them into highly sought after MLB draft picks.

5th Round MLB Draft Pick

Chris Chinea (Undrafted out of high school)
- Many thought he would transfer because of the amount of Catchers on the roster

Easily one of the best CF's in the Nation for three years and went from being written off after a terrible Freshmen season where his bat just did not do much of anything into a

2nd Round MLB Draft Pick

My point?

Kramer Robertson is still a Tiger and could find his swing. CPM is doing something right for these kids as he has helped some of them become high MLB draft picks when it was not looking too good.

All it takes is one season to turn things around and K-Rob is due!
