I don't follow baseball all that much but for the ones that do. How does the team look this year? It is a work that is in progress. The key to success will be in the hands of the pitching staff. The early part of this season demonstrated that we had no starting pitchers & the closers used were very suspect. The hitting lineup has been an issue because WCU has left a ton of guys on base. A shakeup of the hitters could help that situation. Nevertheless, I’ve got my fingers crossed for the rest of this season. |

Jim...You know I see them play every home game. Top half of the batting order is not bad. Shortstop can play for any team in the nation. Centerfielder is legit as is third baseman. Overall, outfield lacks speed. Catching is a work-in-progress. We have had only three or four decent starting performances to date and bullpen pitching has been horrific. It is going to take another week or so for Coach Beck to find a lineup that he trusts. Pitching is two recruiting classes away. Unfortunately for us, the SoCon has several solid teams this season. Wofford has the No. 1 RPI in the nation this week and we are #255. I feel confident that Coach Beck will have us contending two years from now.
