This needs to step up this year. That will be the make or break point in the CWS.

Yes, he is currently listed as the 4th outfielder and will get alot of playing time in a backup role.

I have a feeling Dishon will eventually beat out Watkins.

If Koeneman, Didier and Dishon are not starting this team is ridiculously deep on bats.

Disagree. Watkins can flat out hit and Dishon Ks too much

Watkins is a better CF than Mahtook and Landry, by all accounts.

Dozar got beat out at 3rd, but I heard he was raking before he injured a finger or thumb. He may get some Lefthanded DH at bat's. Dishon will play a lot also.

Mahtook has shown he can play RF and has a much stronger arm than Landry or Watkins.

Watkins is one of the fastest players on this team, will have 35-40 SB's. Can cover the gaps with ease, reason for CF.

Keonenman didn't stand out in practice, will get at bats early in the year, however.

Didier will end up somewhere in the lineup before years end, Mainieri is going with Gaudet as DH for now, but do not be suprised when Didier gets hot and pushes for that spot.

He was really impressed with Alsup.

Moorman and Matulis have work to do to get more innings.

Koenemann had swine flu and missed most of fall.
He'll have to earn it! He's a guy that will probably impress more against non LSU competition.
