I know we haven't played the toughest competition yet, but I feel really good about the parts thisteam has. We have6 or 7guys Iwould feel comfortablepitching on the weekend, and we've got a solid closer in Reed.We've got two solid top of the lineup guys in Frazier and Bradford, even thoughBradford didn't play last night. Porter is a good middle of the lineup guy, Henderson seems to be coming around andhas a .400 batting average in the 9 games he's played in, and Rea has been hitting well and now leads the team in RBIs.
It sucks that Norris went down because he was having a solid season.I hopeBrayden Jones can do a decent job of filling in for him while he's out.Either way, I think this team has some really good pieces to it, and Ireally like the fact we arefinding ways to win these close games. We've alsowon 7 of the 9 games we've playedthat were decided by 3 runs or fewer.I'm hoping that bodes well for us in SEC play. </p>
