You are right on! To crack this line-up in the DH spot- you better be able to hit, hit for power, run, run really fast, and be better than atleast 6-7 other great players. A .275 guy will not see much time. Alot of it will be where any of the unproven guys bat in the line-up. I am all about putting your bat to the SEC test and one could also agree that any of the 6-7 players battling will be get there chance. This is what the fall is for and then we get to Gorilla ball the rest of the SEC. Just hope we have the same problems on the bump!

Everyone agrees that his stats will be less. He did prove that he could hit our SEC pitching in the fall of 08. He hit with the 1 group. Enough to warrent Mainieri's saying if he had stayed be would have played alot of 3b. So will he hit .400/.300/.200 who knows. I bet he hits .350 and DH's and plays some in the field. He bat compares to Matook or Hanover.

.200% drop is pretty strong but it is not unreasonable to thing he will hit less than his JUCO stats. Most pro scouts have his bat as plus, but only time will tell how he hits at this level. Watkins dropped .100 % points.

3 things!

It may just be Hanover and Rhymes. Hanover slumped early then came on Strong. Jones would be elgilbe for draft next year again if he went the JUCO route . If he goes to lsu he is hung for 3 years. There is always room at the top, it gets really crowded at the bottom. The Barbe kid could really complicate the deal. WOW then you have 4 for two spots and maybe one is a DH. The 3 that play better not flinch or they will be the odd man out.

Who ever swings it the best and does not stumble. Hanover maybe the odd guy out? Should be and interesting fall and spring. If Jones follows Boras's advise, he may go to a juco like to the Washington kid.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - The American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA), in conjunction with the NJCAA, has selected its 2010 Players of the Year for all three divisions of play.

College of Southern Nevada catcher Bryce Harper has been selected as the 2010 ABCA NJCAA Division I Baseball Player of the Year. Raph Rhymes from LSU - Eunice was tabbed the ABCA NJCAA Division II Baseball Player of the Year and Gloucester County College (N.J.) outfielder Alexi Colon was named the ABCA NJCAA Division III Baseball Player of the Year.

think a swap may be inorder?

Never for get about our coach pulling some really strange moves with the line-up. Many of which had little to do with talent or results. He changes the line-up like his underwear. Which has worked well.

With all the juggling, does anyone have a fall roster?

Chad Jones?????

Are they coming to LSU-

Rather not because not verified. Just ball park talk! Hope not, but not suprised. There are hundreds of Randy's and one LSU. Tough if your on the bubble. Draft did not help his cause with Colvin-lhp going late. you never know! I just like to see kids do well and this is a tough one if it plays out that way. JUCO or done with the new transfer rules.4-2-4
