Morgan will play 1B
I think most know this. Comment was tongue in cheek.

Sorry guys, I will do better. I couldn't remember who played first base.
Edit: Tommy White would play in front of Cade if shuffled to first but for the preview purposes I've listed Cade in front of him as Tommy has a position already.

Btw can anyone answer, is Ethan's last name pronounced "Frey" or "Fry"?

Morgan had a noticeable increase in power this fall. I'm not ready to call him a power hitter but I think he will be a HR threat at the plate.

Leah Vann wrote up an article about catchers today
She's doing her position analysis as well
She had already had an article about 2B
I think she's hitting the positions that are more unsettled

A day after Adam's write up. What a coincidence.

Are the grades also based on a prediction of the season or strictly based on what they have shown so far?
Guess I ask because of the power grade you give compared to the hitting grade and speed. The potential to have 65 power compared to 70 hitting and 65 speed is there but hasn't been shown yet. I think from what he has shown his power number should be at least 10 less than his hit number. Maybe even 15 less.
Does my question make sense or not really?

You shouldn’t try to make sense of it.

Just wondering what would constitute an 80 here... do you have a college player that had an 80. Honest question.
Assuming Stevenson was 70-80 range when he roamed CF

I tend to agree with this.
I equate LSU's B team to a team like ULL.

Wasn't meant to be a knock on Adam and his grading. Was just curious if it is based on what he thinks the potential is for the season or what the player has shown so far. Morgan had 6HR and then 5HR in his 2 seasons. I don't think that is a 65 power grade. However, I think Morgan will hit 10-12HR like Adam predicted which then I can see the power grade being the 65 he gave.

I'd assume that's why Adam doesn't give him an 80? Regardless, he accounts for more saved outs than errors he's made. Love him at this position.

So Beloso is obviously a factor, but thru fall practices, scrimmage exhibitions, and into the fall, Beloso played the least amount of 1B between he, Frey & Jared Jones (not even mentioned by you).
He mostly DH’ed, and I understand he is recovering from a lower leg injury, but it seems at the very least he was cleared to play in the field in late Oct.
Frey for instance started opposite of Morgan in GM1 & GM2 of the P&G WS. Jones started G3 at 1B opposite of Tre.
Based on my spread sheet, this is how 1B shook out during that time. This isn’t defined by starts, but rather just field appearances (but mostly starts)
Frey 12 G
Jones 12 G
Beloso 6 G (18 at DH)
Travinski, Jobert, Merrfield 1 or 2 appearances each.

It does. I try and look at what he's shown now. It's not an exact science but it does give ell a chance to melt.
He stole 15 bases as a freshman. He stole 0 as a sophomore. Does it mean his speed is below average now? I don't think so. He was playing with a bum knee.
The power tool I've gone back and forth with him. He's more a line drive hitter but scorches balls to the opposite field warning track all the time. It doesn't show on the box score but he's gotten quite stronger from when he first arrived. Last year is an asterisk, I wouldn't be able to drive balls on one healthy knee...we saw an entirely different approach from him the last two months because of it.
I don't think he'll be very active on the base paths again because they don't need him to but he still has above average speed at this level.
I try not to "predict" their tools in the future because that is entirely too subjective. Honestly I hope this answered it and if you have any other questions or comments please do.

I remember having Watson's speed at an 80. A guy like Aaron Nola's control. I don't give them out too often unless it's obvious this player is the about the best you can get at the college level.
