re: Meet LSU Baseball's New Starting Shortstop

It's an interesting thought. That would definitely give us a strong infield defensively. Knowing now that Smith was playing through that injury last weekend it makes sense now. He definitely didn't look comfortable. Maybe just put Smith at 3rd to ease him back into it after the injury.

I hate seeing Smith go down but I'm excited to see what Hughes can do. We know Mainieri puts an emphasis on defense, especially later in the year. That's why I think he might stay in the lineup for good.
