Here and There Bits

Recruiting, recruiting, recruiting. We have been at it. The class of 2015 is currently ranked 4th by Perfect Game. I expect at this point to lose 1 maybe 2 to the draft. Still, it is looking fantastic. The class of 2016 is no slouch either. All 5 commits are ranked 275 or higher. I expect more 2016 commits as the fall progresses. And the 2017 class, all 3 of them are highly ranked. Led by Hunter Milligan (LHP) of Arkansas at 7th in the nation. We are already working on the 2018 class with 1 commit.

The current roster is 42. I haven't heard of any major injuries to keep anyone out of practice. Some pitchers may not pitch much this fall bc of former injuries but they should be full speed during the 2015 season.

I will have a rundown of the 2015 team pre-fall to give you an idea what we have. I will try to post them over the next two weeks.

Of course, when recruits do come for a visit this fall, they will see the video of the new stadium. It will be the #1 college baseball stadium in the country. How can you not play for us? Anyway. It wouldn't surprise me at all we break ground next summer.

Again, on recruiting, we have expanded our reach into these big travel teams and into California. We will be getting some top notch talent in the coming years. Yes, we will get bit by the MLB draft but we will keep our share. We kept 2 highly drafted players before and look what happened....Clark and Palmerio.
