Baseball roster next season

  • So who will we lose ? Im hoping the majority of the pitching staff returns and we gain some pop from the infielders .

  • Hit the main ones in my story.
    DJ Baxendale will go pro
    Nolan Sanburn " "" ""
    I think Randall Fant probably goes from what I have heard
    I would assume most of the rest are back. They signed some good pitchers last year who were young and didn't pitch much this year, but can bring it.

  • Yea i Posted this thread prior to the story above . Yall were on it Mayne !

    Preciate the story

    Yes Bax is gone . Why bust you ass and pitch a winning game and get robbed ? At least in MLB you can get paid for getting robbed...

    If it's just the same - I'm hoping your entire pitching staff signs contracts ... especially that kid Baxendale and his side kick Stanek - then I'll feel much better about playing you next year.

    Stanek missed the cutoff to be eligible for the draft by just a few days. Very few days. Barring a transfer or something, they should have them all back except those three. Trey Killian who they signed from Mountain Home is really good too.

  • So what are you saying? More of the same next year? Damn.

    Should be. I mean, it's hard to replace someone like Baxendale, but there is a good chance that Astin ends up in a starting role next year, so to answer your question, yes. I believe that our pitching will be very solid and very good next year and that as long a Dave Van Horn is here, then we should have a pretty solid staff.

    Could be our staff will be as good and we cant possibly score less !

    We will lose great gloves at 3rd , 2nd and SS but their replacements got a ton of playing time this year .

    Our biggest need is power hitters . Im not sure we have those guys on campus yet.

    I think Blake Baxendale will help with the power. Would be really nice if they could get an OF who is a power hitter. They thought they had that in Sam Bates, but he couldn't hit SEC pitching. He had power earlier in season and in JC games, but SEC pitching got him. Hope they add Baxendale, a power hitting OF and some how get McClure on campus. They have some good young pitchers and Reyes is better than Fant for sure. They need to move Astin to starter and Suggs to closer. Still have Brandon Moore and plenty of others for long relief.

    Bleeker has the look of a power hitter. Hopefully he hasnt reached his potential yet.

    Maybe Blake can play somewhere besides behind the plate where his power would be sapped .

    Yea Suggs is the dude ! I absolutely love his approach .

    Yeah Suggs is a very good pitcher. I agree with you guys. I think Astin or Moore one goes to the rotation and I think it will be Astin. Those young guys they signed last year will get a chance too. I have heard Reyes is a stud. I wouldn't count out Trey Killian helping either.
