He is far off from Bregman. And that’s not a slight

Only seen him couple of times, but someone on TV thought the same.

Bregman was the best player on the team the minute he got to lsu. Freshmen all American, all sec, one of the best SS in the nation

Just not fair to Milam

Comparing freshman Bregs to Milam is not a stretch.

lol, freshman Bregs was the most potent hitter and starting SS on a team that went to Omaha.

Milam will be a solid 4-year player for LSU, he’s not Bregman though

Barbier would hit more HR than Milam with these bats

Just googled Bregman's freshman stats. You're right. Milam has a ways to go this year to be favorably compared to Bregman.

Good grief. Milam just got his first hit in SEC play and you are saying it’s not a stretch to compare to Bregs???

Come on. I love Milam, and he has a lot of potential, but a lot if you are star struck on what he did before SEC play and are not looking at what he’s doing since sec play began.

Everyone wants to compare Milam to Bregs when Bingham is the absolute spitting image of him all the way down to his stance and swing.

Milam is a great player. Let’s let him develop a bit before we compare him to an all time Tiger great.
