Tiger Baseball Fans Dates to Remember

August 31, 1st day of baseball season

Thanks Scuba, great info as always!

Did you ever go back and reshare any interesting fall notes you had last year? Would be curious to see how your fall thoughts played out!

This past year was a fun ride. See you at the Box this fall Scuba.

Yeah I know but did you have any feelings about some players last fall one way or the other than ended up being true?

Yes, I met Casan Evans and Cade Arrambide at a coaches committee meeting last year and talking to them I thought they both would be primary contributors to this years team.
Watching fall scrimmages I felt that Daniel Dickinson would be a starter on the infield. I told his Mom that I thought he would be at 3rd base.
I felt really comfortable with Jared Jones' defensive improvement at 1st base.
I realized how good Derick Curiel was and knew that he would start in the outfield.
I thought that we had players that could start for other SEC teams who would not get much playing time on this team.
I was impressed with the number of power pitchers who were recruited last year and I had difficulty determining what their roles would be.
These kind of things are why I enjoy going to the scrimmages so much. I like trying to guess which players the coaches will utilize in which ways. It's also fun to get to know some of the players and their families.

Excited for Football season but I always look forward to our baseball season as well.

Are scrimmages free entry?

Free entry. No concessions but you can bring in any drinks and food you want. Just clean up your mess. In many ways, I enjoy the scrimmages as much as the games. Very few people there. I bring the kids and their friends. They run wild all over the place and I sit back and drink cheap beer and watch stress free baseball. It really is great.

At many of the Fall scrimmages former players show up & it's a good feeling to see that they are still tied to LSU baseball.

Same for me.
