They made some solid adds:

PJ Craig P
JP Peltier (INF)
O Lee (INF)
B Crisman (OF)
A Kelsey (OF)

But none of those guys are likely moving the needle too much - I wouldn't project any of them to be stars.


Cooper Corkrean (P), Jimmy Anderson (SS), and Robert Omidi (IF) won't likely make it to campus. Those were the big dogs in the portal class. Their loss really hurts the infield depth, and we really need a lefty arm. If those guys were counted in the top 10 ranking, keep that in mind.

I think the team will be *fine* next year. Less talent, on paper, than this season. Bullpen will again be a serious problem. I would expect a fringe top 25 team that would be fortunate to make supers.

Well, by the looks of that list, we can tell which conference takes baseball seriously.
Yes. How crazy it that? lol. I guess it really does mean more in the SEC. Our entire Sports programs are killing it now and I love watching all of them. Women’s basketball and volleyball has really been fun the last few years and I’ve enjoyed watching them grow and win at such a high level. All UK sports really.

Yeah but nowhere to go but up IMO. That position was a real weak spot last year behing the plate and at bat
The guys we brought in are much worse than the guys were last year on paper. That’s the scary thing. We were the deepest we’ve ever been at C last season, but it didn’t work out. Along with the pen, C should be a serious weakness this year.
