Hudson-Brown-Sexton

I would expect Cohen to start a freshman too in the early season four game series.

I think you have it right. I don't know anything about the freshman but I'd guess Tatum is going to be long relief with a freshman as the mid week guy

Hudson didn't start a game last year and we are

relying on him to be our ace? I hope he became Superman in summer ball. Skeptical would be an understatement.

It's not just here where people think Hudson will be good this year... Perfect game has him as a preseason all American

At this point, this statement, at least from you, goes without saying.

I'm sure we are all looking forward to you freaking out every time we go down by a run in the first.

Need mid relievers and closers too. Pitching last year was bad all the way around.

At the very least, you might want to check out what he did over the summer .. so you at least appear to be less of an a-hole.

Dakota Hudson Dominates Cape Cod Hitters .. http://www.scout.com/college/missis...7203-dakota-hudson-dominates-cape-cod-hitters

Coca-Cola Player and Pitcher of the Week #10 .. http://www.capecodbaseball.org/news/week/?article_id=2179#sthash.L4FtsGrR.dpuf

Despite the fact that the Hyannis Harbor Hawks were no match for second time champions Yarmouth-Dennis Red Sox, it goes without saying that the Harbor Hawks had one of their best seasons this summer. Hyannis put up a strong front against the Red Sox as the two teams battled it out for the title of 2015 Cape League Champions. Two of Hyannis’ instrumental playoff wins were thanks in large part to ace Dakota Hudson (Mississippi State), whose appearances on the mound these past two weeks earned him recognition as the 2015 Top Championship Pitcher. Hudson, starting on the mound in Game 1 of the championship series, gave up only one earned run on two hits and struck out eight Red Sox in eight exceptional innings of work. Earlier in the playoffs, Hudson shined in a matchup against Cotuit, where the power arm allowed no earned runs on four hits and struck out five Kettleers in a 10-3 victory. Hudson, who was recognized as a Coca-Cola Pitcher of the Week earlier this week, finishes up the season with a polished 1.43 ERA and second in the league with 54 strikeouts in his 56.2 innings on the mound.
Hudson, a resident of Dunlop, Tenn., will be returning to Mississippi State University this fall to start his junior year. Going 1-1 and posting a .432 ERA following his 2015 season, Hudson is entering the Mississippi field with a great deal of promise and practice following his memorably stint with the Harbor Hawks this summer.

Hudson is our Friday guy, then Sexton and Daniel Brown the next two days. Losing Preston Brown hurt; he could've locked down a weekend spot.

Yeah, I'm going to go ahead and disagree with you there on P. Brown. He was a midweek starter at best. He experience would have added some value, for sure.

Apparently, Hudson is going to be the next in the tradition of Cohen taking blue-chip players, getting absolutely nothing out of them for 2 years, then they have a breakout year in their JR season and get a good contract from MLB. We will never be a consistent winner getting 1 year of production out of players.

We went 8-22 in the SEC last year, finished second to last in ERA (5.45), opposing batting average (.294), saves (3), hits allowed and runs allowed, we return most of the same bunch, and you are surprised that he is skeptical?

Until these losers prove to me that they can win, I will also be skeptical.

We return the #1 most valuable accumulation of summer league talent in the country. Literally.

I agree. Summer ball gives me some hope, as does the new pitching coach. But they're all going to have to show me in the SEC before I'm convinced. Because they were god-awful last spring.

Top 10-20 pitching staff. Save where I said it.

Trust me I understand what you're saying. However, with rugby, I wouldn't be shocked if he was skeptical of we had went 22-8 in sec play.

Agreed. I wouldn't be surprised if Collins is in that discussion too although his injuries should be noted.

Show me. That's all I'm saying. We have the #1 group of summer ball players from last year, but also the #14 group of SEC players from last year. I don't think for a second we'll finish DFL again this year. But I don't think we're going to be as good as you do. I'm thinking regional bid, but not a host and no super-regional for us this spring. In other words, an average season. I hope you are right.

??? What does having a top 10-20 pitching staff have to do with getting one year of production out of an eventual high MLB draft pick?

Why didn't Dan Mullen get more out of Dak Prescott his first 2 years -- when we were nowhere near the top 5% nationally at the spot?!1 It's a ridiculous argument to ***** about particulars on staffs that are still elite. The key word is EVENTUAL. It's not like we're taking first rounders and destroying careers here.

Its perfectly reasonable for the majority of MSU Baseball fans to be in "show me" mode.

Short of the defining story line in 2016 being injuries, my expectations are to host a regional. The schedule is an asset instead of a liability. The team, at least in January, looks to have plenty of talent. It's going to be very hard for me to watch us travel to a regional and be happy about it.

Yep. Hosting year. Anything less will be a disappointment and failure. No excuse with 5 pitchers likely going in the top 10 rounds of the upcoming draft. Should not be an "average" year.

Agreed with that too. Depending on the growth of the freshmen on the hill it could ease it more than appears on paper right now. I don't see anywhere we'll miss a beat in the field really. Maybe in Rooker's slot if he comes on as expected...

But we have seen this before to a lesser extent. Patdog nailed it. I'll go further. Why does it seem to take the summer league coaching to improve our players dramatically?
