One of the keys to baseball is being strong up the middle Catcher, SS, 2nd and CF…. We really haven’t had a stud SS and 2B since Foscue and Westburg. It looks like we have a Catcher transferring in and doesn’t Mershon catch as well.
Who’s out there?

Catcher is the most needed. We can manage with Lucas and Gatlin, but we really give up some pop. Hopefully there will be a productive SS out there who can offer consistent defense and a productive bat, too. Right now I am unsure whether Lucas or Gatling will return, but hopefully they will.

I have a bad case of CRS, please refresh my memory, who was the catcher that got thrown out of the game last year for taunting?

We need a stud SS and catcher. Need to replace Sawyer and upgrade catcher. Those positions + another weekend starter and 3-4 relievers and I'll feel really good about next year.

The Becker kid from Virginia looks promising. Hope he comes and fills in at SS. Saw a C from Notre Dame in the portal ranked pretty high.

Can we get Ole Miss's 6'5"/250 lb short stop to transfer in? Asking for a friend. He had 22 HRs......couldn't that help us a little bit?

Go buy Utermark at Ole Piss for SS and then go buy Bodine at Coastal for our catcher. Both studs. NIL.....get to work!!
