That would be a solid pickup, if we can close on him.

At worst, looks like he could be a solid bullpen guy. At best, he develops into a weekend starter.

He’d be a great pick up, but I’m chomping at the bit to see another proven starter by way of portal.

Has the UCLA kid ever made a decision? If not, are we still in on that?

He's a fairly solid pickup if we get him.

He looked like the next great vandy starter last year in Omaha. Did he have an injury this year that set him back or did he just not produce?

Little started college ball at 17 and pitched this past year as an 18 year old sophomore

This is a guy looking to cement himself in a rotation and has the upside to make a substantial leap - 6’4, 215 with big fastball

I remember them speaking very highly of him in the CWS. Next in line of great Vandy pitchers. Maybe even comparing him to Rocker.

From my sources, he finally had enough of the Whistler.

He ran into Dylan crews and cade Doughty when they were as hot as ever

That 3.72 ERA would likely be a low 3s if not for that Saturday outing

Edit: Little would actually be below 3 if you remove his 3.1 IP, 6 ER performance against lsu. He walked 5 that outing

He finished the year with 1 ER over his final 8 IP, 10 Ks, 3 BB

If you watch the game where lsu got to him, his stuff jumps out at ya. Zero doubt he has the ability.

Again, pitched last year at 18 years old

it would be fantastic if he'd add this to his reasons for transferring so Vandy would make that miserable bastard disappear.

I bet when he saw all of those bench bleachers down the lines he said no way I can pitch at LSU.
