Just need Evans and Schmidt to fulfill their potential, and Moore to get back where he was.

I think Yeskie tries to get every pitcher to their max pro potential from every perspective-- mechanics, pitches, pitch calling, etc. You see what happens when it comes to fruition-- Anderson, Eyanson, pretty much Shores and Junp by the end... The problem is such a small percentage of guys are going to reach that level. It kinda doesn't completely align with winning as many games as possible for LSU. Some of these guys would probably have more college success just sticking with their natural mechanics, not adding a 3rd or 4th pitch, not having to throw every pitch on the edge of the plate. I'm not sure turning every pitcher into an MLB pitcher should be the goal for all of them because there's no real room for a middle ground. It's either become that or fail. We need more room for success at a lower bar than that.

I hate to say it but it's not about showing you have talent, it's about producing results. Paz, Ruckert, and Patrick are all in the same boat. They had ample opportunity and definitely had good moments but their overall production just didn't warrant being guaranteed anything moving forward. Braun and Serna did. That's just this class. You can go back every year. Year 1 statistical production is the career indicator 90% of the time, not talent or ability.
The other asterisk was if they don't land Angel Laya.

Moscona was talking about Davis and Patrick platooning until one wins the job as if he was on the team. I know he's not liked but he is getting inside info straight from the athletic staffs these days.

Evans, Schmidt, and Moore will be the starters until after tax day regardless of performance if fully healthy. They wouldn't still be here otherwise. Hood, Paz, and Ricken can prove that they should take their spot at that point if they haven't improved. Maybe Cooper Williams gets back on track as well.

Dabo is an excellent recruiter. That's the whole reason he was dominant pre-NIL. His struggles have been because recruiting hardly matters anymore.
Clemson pre-Dabo was basically LSU pre-Saban. His tenure has been Saban at LSU and Miles at LSU combined.

Hard to be "too" excited about Kurland given his decline every year of his career but he definitely has the highest floor given his insane number of at bats in the SEC with a career .888 OPS and good infield defender. Even if you don't get freshman Kurland, you're basically getting 2025 Danny Dickinson. Nothing wrong with that obviously.
Bino Watters is clearly #1. Essentially an all-american hitter in the ACC. I'd have Kurland #3 with Landon Hood #2 given the stuff, the need for pitching, and the 2 years of eligibility. Kurland is a more sure thing to contribute to this team though.

Are we not expecting Guidry back? I think 16 are pretty clear. Yamin, Guidry, and Aase are the 3 I would be less certain. I'm assuming he's not counting Curiel, Brown, Sheerin, or Garcia.
I still think there's a chance on Brown though. Unlike almost every guy ever where we say they can't raise their stock, Brown actually could. With a monster year he could be a top 10-15 pick. Not sure where he'll get picked or offered at the moment.

10 run rule option is solely decided by the visiting coach for non-conference games. Jay has no say. Unless he said something like we're not scheduling you if you impose it which would be a bit much.
I expect Pearson and Serna to get some time at 1st too.

I think Braun is going to play a lot of OF and 1B because that is what will allow the platoon of the others. His finally position will be determined by which 9 earn their spot and what position allows that.

Ruckert is better right now. And Pearson is a better hitter than either right now. But the absolute ceiling for this team would be for Patrick to make a massive leap. Dude just reeks of Mikie Mahtook. If he could get to that level we'd be stacked. Ruckert doesn't have that ceiling, albeit a higher floor.
That's weird. So Milam, Park, and Kurland are all going to change positions??
The thing i love most about Jay is how pissed he gets from losing.
I thought Ruckert showed a lot as a freshman. Kurland has declined his entire career. I'd rather 2-4 years of Ruckert versus 1 from Kurland.
The problem will be if Ruckert winds up entering the portal because of Kurland.

I disagree regarding Braun. I would much rather him in LF than 1B. I wasn't very impressed by his defense at 1st. Plus he has a small frame which isn't going to change. He's plenty athletic enough to play LF which is more conventional for his body type.
