re: LSU Baseball 2025 (and beyond) Recruiting Thread

Question now becomes: Is Jay content with what we currently have in the OF/1B without him or are we looking for another in the portal. I wish DiMartini would've waited on committing until now

I know we can't count on incoming guys until after the draft but if we get lucky they have a few incoming recruits who can probably contribute day 1.

If Serna's bat plays immediately like Arrambide's did then he could get OF reps to get his bat in the lineup and then get midweek reps at C. Probably not super likely but I would imagine he'd get at least a look there in the fall.

So what’s the outfield look like next year now?

Daniel Harden, Mason Braun, William Patrick, Tanner Reaves, Jack Ruckert, Cade Arrambide, Eddie Yamin all capable of playing a corner outfield spot.

I really like Harden, very toolsy, still putting it together

Jack Ruckert,

Is he not projected to play INF? or do you think he moves to OF since SS is taken at the moment?

Hasn’t there been some talk of Fauske moving to the OF?
