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

BoRob started following Daniel Harden, LSU portaller. Was a teammate of Big Sherm at McLennan and put up big numbers his SO year in JUCO ball.

Also following Myles Davis, whose name I havent seen here but could have missed. Davis is from OU where he didn't play much, but was a good JUCO player the year before. Davis was ranked 102 overall according to PG

Kid from UNCP that is having a very good summer. Over the summer for the statesville owls he is at 14.1 innings, 0.63 ERA, 5 hits, 29Ks/5walks, 0.70 whip.

Overall pretty meh stats at UNCP, but maybe something has clicked for him this summer

I will say, we have a TON of arms. With the roster number being 34, how many should we realistically keep? We are pushing 18-20 right now. Of the top of my head so excuse the spelling

Nance
Manuel
Garino
Black
Jacob Smith
Hemric
Ragusa
Kitchings
Harris
JUCO (Mirel sp)
Biemiller
Chicoli
Lax
Gutierrez
Holbrook

Then 3 more guys (atleast) HS kids coming in, according to perfect game. And another JUCO arm (sanders) that seems to maybe be on the fence. That would be 19 and i might be missing a guy or 2.

You are a good baseball mind, curious as to your thoughts as to how many arms are too many? Or I guess how would you split it with the roster at 34?

Personally I think I would go 18/16 pitchers to position guys. After your starting 9 you need 1 catcher (atleast, probably 2), 1 corner IF, 1 MIF, 2 OF, 1-2 utility guys. I know a lot of guys, especially in college, can play a lot of position but it seems we are a few position guys short in my eyes
