I expect Mikey Ragusa to take a massive jump.

7 scoreless with 12k so far in 6 appearances in the Cape this summer. Just 1 hit allowed so far.

Shoulder strain really held him back.

Being realistic here (not counting Marohn and obviously Dudan) i don't really think anyone that is draft eligible would really elevate our team much next year. I would love to have Coop back, maybe that's possible, but even then he hasn't been great since his freshman year. Heath Andrews? Would be just another arm IMO, we have a big enough sample size on him. Not sure who else could possibly return that would help.

So how are we feeling about things so far?

I'd grade it a B so far. Upgraded at catcher, got a nice 2nd baseman, and IMO the Texas kid can atleast give you fraasman numbers if he plays everyday (low bar considering fraasmans struggles). Definitely need another guy or two that can hopefully give you power

The arms on the mound are nice, maybe not game changers but solid. I don't think we really needed power arms, we have 4-5 of them if they can throw strikes. Should be fun to see the mixing and matching with the arms, if Chysler can help get some returning guys to throw more strikes, it'll go a long way for our pen. But Lax, Gutierrez and USC kid will definitely help

I will be honest. The arms are by far my biggest concern. We almost always hit but you have to have 5-6 bigtime arms to get to a CWS. I am not sure I see any yet - maybe Nance. We need more Marohns and Dudans.

Oh I agree. I am still hopeful we can get a nice piece to throw on Saturday as I think Lax would be a solid Sunday guy. He will keep you in most games and throw strikes- what you need on a Sunday. As of now, we are going to have a lot of arms in the fall, who steps up? If nothing changes between now and then, we will really have to hope someone improves a decent bit

Agree
