Next years team will look very different.
Yep

I dont know many players who will be retained
But this isn't why. We will be losing all of our outfield starters, our starting shortstop, and the players who have the most starts so far this season at first base and shortstop. Plus a couple of pitchers who have had significant innings.
Fielders in bold were starters, italicised have a few starts under their belt
Out of eligibility
Tanner Reaves
Seth Dardar
Dax Dathe
Grant Fontenot
Chris Stanfield
Brayden Simpson
Zach Yorke

Your 3 best players.. Milam, Curiel and Brown are all draft eligible. Will be looking at a completely different team next year. I’m expecting Serna and Braun will have to step up.
With there being complaints about the lack of revenue sharing at LSU in baseball, I wouldn’t be surprised if Jay Johnson had one foot out of the door.
Could Jay Johnson make the same move Tony V made? Would he want to try managing at the next level?

I think at this point, that decision would be completely his. He'd be a 5th year senior and likely a DSA, so he wouldn't count against the 34 man limit. If he graduates and determines he'd like to drop down to a lower conference to finish his career and potentially see more time on the mound, I could see it.
But I could also see him back on the roster next year.

We had the same fielding % in 2022 that we do this year, and at the same point in the season that year it was in was in the .950s. Not saying that excuses our defense this year, but this is kind of who Jay has been in his career. Last year was a pretty large outlier for him having such a good defense

Roughly the same rate as 2022, both were really bad. 2025 was a historically good year. Jay does prioritize hitting over fielding.
I did a quick look back at all the seasons to 2016
2016 - 59 Errors, in 66 games played, equating to 0.8939 Errors/game
2017 - 53 Errors, in 72 games played, equating to 0.7361 Errors/game
2018 - 50 Errors, in 66 games played, equating to 0.7576 Errors/game
2019 - 56 Errors, in 66 games played, equating to 0.8485 Errors/game
2020 - 13 Errors, in 19 games played, equating to 0.6842 Errors/game
2021 - 63 Errors, in 63 games played, equating to 1.0000 Errors/game
2022 - 82 Errors, in 62 games played, equating to 1.3226 Errors/game
2023 - 59 Errors, in 71 games played, equating to 0.8310 Errors/game
2024 - 51 Errors, in 66 games played, equating to 0.7727 Errors/game
2025 - 44 Errors, in 68 games played, equating to 0.6471 Errors/game
2026 - 50 Errors, in 38 games played, equating to 1.3158 Errors/game

I'm just a dumb coonass. The above post makes no sense to me.
The same amount of errors as games played? Every year?

Looking back, he's been about the same as Manieri was, except for 2022 & this year, looking at it as errors per game (not sure why I didn't use fielding percentage
). Posted on 4/16/26 at 4:22 pm to Whataburger

I'm the dummy; I used a spreadsheet and picked the wrong column to generate the sentences. I will correct it.

Bad pitching = more errors at every level
Posted on 4/16/26 at 4:59 pm to bayoubengal014
We may have teh suck this year but at least we're not Coppin State.
38 runs on 12 hits, you say?
That's because their pitchers walked 25 and hit 9 others.

This is probably Jays worst defensive team since he’s been at lsu. They are bad.

Glad we got 'em out of our system.

This board has completely removed year 1 from their brains. Bee happening all year.
Errors
Our middle infield:
Thompson 18
Doughty 14
Cranford 5
3rd Base:
Berry 7
Merrifield 5
If we didn't have Tre Morgan saving our arse on errant throws, those numbers would have been much higher.
Add to that, and we don't exactly track the stat, I have never seen more strike threes result in a runner at first base than we had with McManus at catcher that year. It was incredible honestly
Pitching was bad too. We just hit a lot better than we have this year and we won 17 SEC games, so people have seemingly completely forgotten how fricking bad we were defensively

This is way too much effort buddy. The echo chamber just wants to upvote and agree.
