re: Players who have started every game

Typically JUCO guys will sign for penny and dimes with no college commit pending. However it's understood that every player Mainieri takes it's under the notion the player is set on attending LSU given he isn't selected with a top pick. For this reason there isn't a falling out of JUCO signees annually.

Five years ago Lucas Leblanc an All-American OF out if Delgado was thought to be Leon Landrys replacement but the Red Sox nabbed him in round 11. He was always a draft risk but for reasons outside of basebal (not related to LSU) which I will not get into he signed with Boston.
