This maybe the start of that.
I hope so brother. Like in the other big 2 sports our state always produces big time prospects. Just gotta keep em at home.
North Augusta*
Yes, across the river
SRP Park is awesome
Augusta, N Augusta unless you’re on I 20 it’s hard to tell one from the other. And that’s not a dig on either. I mean when you cross the state line not in town, big difference.
I know it was only Richmond but the Dawgs did what they had to and pulled out a couple of one run games.
Who’s going to the double header today?
I tell ya Blaylock sure has been a huge addition at the plate with everything we have to replace from last year. Ryan Webb was filthy in the 5 innings he's tossed so far. Over 2 k's per inning. And the freshman Jonathan Cannon seems to be our closer sooner than later. Big kid that tosses aspirins up there.
Ryan Webb was absolutely amazing, kids stock has to be going up. I know it was Santa Clara & not Vanderbilt but gotta love the grit & determination to come back & win the 1st one yesterday.
The freshman arms in the bullpen look really good!
Yep especially Cannon and Childers. Tucker is absolutely seeing beach balls rite now. Cam's heating up, and while his average isn't great rite now; Blaylock has crazy power ( and I won't be shocked if he drops 15 bombs or more this year. Ryan Webb has been Filthy this year averaging 2k's an inning.
Garret Brown looks like Kevin Brown out there at 6'7 and has been electric.
We may be one or 2 bats in the lineup from comfortably saying a Natty is coming this year. But getting to Omaha SHOULD be very obtainable. With 2 guys that will be top 5 picks and all of these young power arms; we SHOULD be in every game on the schedule.
But having to go to Gville, Vandy, A&M, Mizzou etc makes it a gauntlet of a schedule. We're definitely going to find out what kind of character as a team we have.
Will Childers is from my hometown hopefully Stricklin gives him the nod when we play gsu at srp park.
I'm there with you. Garrett Brown on Ryan Webb have been getting the nod when Hancock or Wilcox don't start. But in these ooc games, (especially during the week) I'd think Childers, Webb, and Brown get ALOT of work. Because Cannon from what I've seen and heard is gonna be our closer sooner than later. Jmo but the weekend rotation when conference play begins will be Hancock, Wilcox and Webb with Brown being thrown in the 3 spot in certain series depending on how much bullpen we've used on that weekend and who is available on those wknds.
So if Brown and Childers get us thru the week. That leaves the big 3 + Cannon, and several of these other pups who are loaded with potential.
A few shocks to me this year has been how crazy of a start Tucker has gotten. Anderson being a leadoff stud etc. But Blaylock has to quit striking out so much, and Riley King is off to a slow start. But the pitching, situational hitting, baserunning, and defense has been stellar. We've got the pieces to accomplish a ton this year. I just think we may be 1 or 2 big bats away.
Hopefully Riley King gets back to being himself tomorrow night vs tech
