Stevenson too.



And then you have a Tyler Moore, who found a permanent home there.

Just count the Kramer threads between now and February. There is the baseball mafia and then there's the Kramer stalkers.

He is a Tiger, so I'm pulling for him to succeed.

Just wish Kramer all the best...problem is that he m®e lost at the plate than any LSU.

In fairness to the other talented kids, CPM needs to let Kramer hit his way into the lineup.

I have my doubts that his game transitions to college baseball.

I'm as big of a Krob fan as there is. The kid plays with a little flair that I think is fun to watch. I also thing he has the skills to be special on defense. He played 3 sports in high school unlike most of these kids that have been all in on baseball since 8th grade. He's technically still learning some of the nuances. I think he has potential to be better at the plate if he's given every day play. Lead the team? Of course not. But good enough to not be a liability and do good things when on base. All that said - I do not understand the plethora of threads started about him. It's mind boggling.

Here's exactly how it will play out.

1) Coaches will see he had a solid Cape. Thats a plus.

2) They will evaluate his Fall. Good or bad, this will lead to playing time to start the season.

3) If he struggles, he will sit. If he hits, he will stay in the lineup.

Any comparisons to Schimpf, Katz, Babe Ruth... don't matter ONE OUNCE.

You think that'd be pretty easy to understand.

I'd like to see him do well, but what you're not realizing is that everyone you mentioned had gap power with enough pop to leave the yard.
Kramer, not so much.

Krob - the only part time starter on a college baseball team who still garners his own thread in October. Damn, this kid is polarizing. I'm a krob fan but damn I don't get the infatuation/ hatred.

How's Domangue looking as our closer right now?

And Dawson with "total bases"?

ramer Robertson is 5'6" 160 on a good day. The others aren't. I also fail to see what he has to do with those players.


Sorry, KRob is 5'10". His torso vs leg length misrepresents his actual height. Reference LSUsports.net

To be fair, those numbers are often exaggerated. For example, Mike Fontenot is listed as 5'8".

I think Manieri has done an outstanding job overall. he has won one NC. he's not skip bertman and he's not the Turner guy at SC or the Vandy coach Corbin. but he is one of the nations best coaches.



CPM is not as good as Skip was but Skip would not be as good as Skip was in todays college baseball. He would not have won 5 NC's these days. More teams are putting effort in to baseball then back then because of Skip.

Corbin was considered a constant underachiever until two years ago. He was the coach at Vandy for 8 years before making it to Omaha in 2011. And didn't win there until 2014.

CPM has won more games than any other coach in the NCAA in the past four years and also the only coach to have his team as a top 8 national seed four years in a row. Yes he has had teams come up short in the postseason and LSU doesn't change the intimidator unless you win a NC but for people to constantly say he is a horrible coach is wrong and dumb to say. He has flaws like every coach has flaws. He is LSU's coach and will have this team and every team until he leaves in the top of the country and gives you a shot to win every year and really as fans isn't a shot to win it all all you can ask for. A million things can happen in postseason play to lead to the end.

The problem with Krob is that he isn't a complete hitter and doesn't use the entire field. Considering his size, he needs to use right field more, but acts more like a pull-only power hitter. If he hits the ball where its pitched, his avg will increase, but if not, the better pitchers will eat him alive by staying on the outer half and with off-speed
