I know he’s gone but I don’t think I’ve ever wanted a tiger baseball player back more than

Dude has won more games for us than anyone that’s not a pitcher in a long time

His glove was beast mode, don’t think I would have ever thought he would be that good at first, especially following Morgan. Thought is would be a weakness, but it wasn’t…

Jones became a really good defensive first baseman. Tre was just a great defensive player who happened to play first base and you rarely see that.

Not likely but that would be great. He needs a great hitting coach. It’s fundamental issues he has to work on. His fielding has been excellent.

It’s like watching your child leaving on their own. Sad but it’s best for him. We have his memories and cold blood that won us a lot of games. Let’s just thank him and wish him well!

In reality he has very little chance to sniff the show. So he could max out his NIL and run it back. He will easily make up for a smaller signing bonus next draft. It’s unlikely he thinks as i do. But he might.

He come back for his SR year and he’s a lock to get his name on Alex Box.

I know he’s wants to take his shot at the big leagues though

Come back and be all time home run leader. He only needs like 17 more.

Tre’s curse in life is being left handed. He is a damn good middle infielder if he could throw right handed.

This is mostly all wrong. I do agree he may struggle to get to the show though. I do think if he entered last year he would’ve been drafted higher than he will be this year. You don’t come back ay all for a Sr season because he loses all negotiating leverage.

He will have to completely remake his swing and approach to have any chance at the big leagues. This is a couple years ordeal, minimum.

Take all emotion out of this thread. If he wantsto improve his chances at the next level, he ABSOLUTELY needs one more year at LSU with a focus on offense. If not, his name will disappear in the ashes. Hope I am wrong if he does leave...BEST OF LUCK!

I completely agree!

If he came back the home run record is his….
He’s a legit first baseman, and solid bat.

But I don’t think he is even considering it, because he would lose leverage. But, I sure do wish he would.

I just don’t agree. He is a quality first baseman with insane power. Yes, he absolutely has holes in his swing. Pitchers will continue to throw him off speed until he proves he can adjust. You know who he reminds me of? Pete Alonso.

Bear will continue to get stronger and improve the holes in his swing. He clearly has good work ethic. I for one would not be shocked to see him in the Majors within three years tops. He’s big, long, powerful and has shown huge improvement defensively. Scouts are wrong far more than they are right.
