He hit one 107 mph yesterday. That’s a big number. I don’t know who it was off of though.

Getting Hampton and Cade to come to LSU were our fortunate breaks in this last signing class. Missing out on Christian Cairo was our unfortunate break. If he would have came in and lived up to the billing we would be looking at a much more solid team.
Too early to tell I guess, but maybe Cranford surprises.

How do you know he hasn’t been given that opportunity?

He has been given the opportunity, it’s just been cut short due to injury. We won’t know anything about him until late March probably.

He is struggling with 2nd and struggled with 3rd, so probably cant handle short

His defense is not where it would need to be to play short. His best chance to get on the field this season would be 2B. He will also DH. They don’t want his defense to affect his confidence at the plate.

Exactly my point

It seemed as if he was dating CPM wasn’t giving anyone else an opportunity

Kinda like when he sat our hottest hitter last season

Well, let me save you some time. He is our SS, so don't bother watching, or discussing baseball, until he is gone. You already know we are fricked, so why bother right?

Excuse me. When he returns healthy he should have every opportunity to play

Hughes is what he’s shown you for 2 years

No JML I wrongfully thought we were talking big picture not just the first month of this year. My apologies

I would imagine, save Hughes making a complete 180 at the plate this season, he will be given the opportunity when he’s healthy again.

If I read correctly however, he had a rib removed? I would expect he will be brought back in very slowly.

And I’d hope once healthy, he gets the chance as well
