For people that don't look at bdj, Cohen said:<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; ">He noted that he expects</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; ">CT Bradford, Daryl Norris, Adam Frazier, Hunter Renfroe and Demarcus Henderson</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; ">to find some playing time this year and noted</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; ">Taylor Stark</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; ">could as well.

If Henderson is actually that good he will be starting at second, but that could just be Cohen giving him too much credit, as he has done with guys like Devin Jones and Sam Frost. Also, I'm surprised Collins is moving to first. </p>

It's whoever he hypes up, is going to be a flop. Exhibit A- Trey Johnson.

I actually pity the people that he hypes up. It's like a kiss of death.

One thing is for sure- we're going to see a LOT of guys play those first 20 games.

The thing about freshmen- and I'll say this now before I get accused of "making excuses" is they are going to have to make the adjustment from high school to SEC ball, and it's quite a jump. They are going to struggle at times. But, there also may be a player or two that is able to come in right away and make the leap. But it's not the norm. The only way to figure out who can and can't is to play an actual game.

The fact that we have so many freshmen is one reason why I'm sticking to my 30 win prediction.

I was surprised by Collins moving to first too, but it will allow us to have an outfield of Brent Brownlee, Jaron Shepherd, and CT Bradford, and at the same time make us more athletic on the infield. So, when you think about it, it makes sense from a defensive standpoint.

he is getting major praise from the staff.

for Cohen to jinx. Player of the Year in Florida is pretty strong.

Im hearing he is not only going to start in the field but he is a candidate for a weekend spot on the mound.
