LSU Baseball 2024 outlook

Yeah, I know we still have a bowl game to play, but I can't help myself.  I'm ready for baseball.

so let's take a look at what we are most likely looking at for the roster on opening day

 

C - O'Malley / Vibe / Neal
1B - Bear Jones
2B - Josh Pearson
3B - MR. Tommy Tanks
SS - Michael Braswell
OF - Fishhead Spicoli
OF - Jake Brown
OF - Mac Bingham

 

Pitchers:

Here is where things will be a bit more interesting.
We don't have another Skenes (who the hell does?) or really even a Ty Floyd.
But I think we're e lot deeper than we were for most of last season.

Righties:

Gavin Guidry and Thatcher Hurd are both back and will likely have big roles.
Dutton was "serviceable" at times last year too.  Hellmers is also still here, but is a complete crapshoot on the mound most nights.
Christian Little is also back. no clue if that's good or bad with him.

Jayden Noot will be actually available this season.  And I'm looking forward to seeing what he has, because he is supposed to be a damn good one.

IF we see Chase Shores again, it won't be until LATE in the season, but I'm not expecting him to play this season.

the rest are all newbies and we'll have to wait and see what they are.

 

Lefties:

We have 10 lefties on the roster. TEN!!!!  That's roughly how many we had during Paul's entire carer here.

Javen Coleman is back to 100% and hopefully we see his true potential this year.
Herring showed out in flashes last year and I'm excited to see him take the next step.

Ackenhousen will fill the Stapleton role.  Both in personal appearance, and in his actual spot in the rotation.

then we got new dudes that are supposed to be impact guys.

Gage Jump(transfer from UCLA) and Cam Johnson (true freshman) should get plenty of opportunities on the bump.

The first LSU home games, two of them will be against VMI. My Brother-in-Law graduate from there and played football there. So it’s my job to get tickets to the game. 
I have relatives that have a suite. So I’ll be asking them.

then I highly, highly recommend the movie Field of Lost Shoes if you haven't seen it yet.

true story from the Civil War.

Cadets at VMI were forced into a Battle at Shennandoah Valley. 
won't give away the plot or outcome, but a really good flick.

he's probably seen it.

there is a memorial on campus for those cadets.
so at a bare minimum, I'm sure he knows the story.

Yes he said that he had seen it! I plan to watch when I get time! Thanks

Got a chance to watch it last night. It was a good one. Thanks for the tip.

I will be looking into this, thanks

Watched it the other night, very good. 
On a side note, had lunch the other day with Former LSU Tiger Basketball player Duane DeArmond‘s wife and husband. Was telling them about the movie. I need to get a movie review from them.
