Kinda of a strange take with a 5.33 era


That beat 50% of our staff from last season…

Hard to get excited about that.


We were spoiled by CJJs first portal year. We may never top Skenes, Tommy and Hurd in one year. Can’t expect generational talent in every class.

This kind of shite is why I asked if the kid made an actual announcement.

Yep, and someone probably did.run from the recruiting thread to put it on Twitter just like you said to be the “first to break the news”. And everyone just copies it from there.

Might want to check your resources.

Benge throws 98 and has a K/9 ratio of 9.5 which is considered elite. He has some command issues. With his velocity there is no reason he can’t be a solid pitcher if he gains some command of the strike zone.

This is all objectively false.

-A&M has managed to bring most of their players back from the portal. Other than that, not much at all.
-Tennessee has added 1 pitcher with worse ERA than the pitcher you’re down on, and the kid from Louisville.

I’ll try to do some sunshine pumping, as here are the numbers for Seth Lugo from Parkway/Centenary… he didn’t have great stats but is now an AL All Star… never know, but I trust the staff.

quote:

Lugo attended Parkway High School in Bossier City, Louisiana,[1] and Centenary College of Louisiana, where he played college baseball for the Centenary Gentlemen. In three seasons with Centenary, Lugo had a 5.31 earned run average (ERA)


Let’s hope this Benge kid can continue to develop.

Yes but before he is in the Major Leagues. I think we need him to develop in the 2025 season at LSU

Yes I should have made clear I would like to see him at least have a season comparable to Ulloa this past year.

How long has it been since LSU won The College World Series, seems like forever doesn't it?
