CATCHER

Ty Ross So. *
Jordy Snikeris Sr.

If there was a preseason award for the most improved player from last year to this year Ty Ross would be at the top of the list. While shedding nearly fifteen pounds in the offseason Ty is putting himself in position to be much more mobile not only on the base paths, but behind the plate in what he’s hoping is his breakout year. In 2011 Ross never found his groove offensively in what was a struggle getting accustomed to SEC pitching. After a year under his belt and a quick summer stint in the Cape Cod league I have a feeling Ross isn’t as likely to press at the plate as his did as a freshman. In my opinion the more he gets comfortable in the box in turn it will allow him to utilize his raw power and start to become the pull hitter he was in high school. In terms of defense LSU is set with a solid backstop for at least the next two years in Ty Ross who only allowed 3 passed balls in forty six games last season. Ross still has below average speed which is not uncommon in big bodied catchers. Jordy Snikeris who also returns from last year will serve in the backup role as well as start a few midweek games here or there.

Power------45
Hitting------40

the main reason I do this preview is to simply get out a brief feel for the team to the fans who don't get a chance to see them or the ones who live out of state etc...

Thank you.

About the only thing I hear from the Baseball Team is through this forum.

Hey Adam, Love your quick analysis of each position and possible starting player in that position. I was just wondering as a possible filler between the 11th-16th you could also do the following:
a quick summary of the "bench" position players
a summary of the relief pitchers
a write up on next years commitments
a prediction of the team's record with a preview of each series

Just a thought if not for this year maybe for next year as a possibility!!

Adam, what's your scouting repor on this baranik kid that just got suspended?

baseball is one day away!

surprised there was no count down..
