Heck of a question. I'd go Renfroe. If you pick Graveman suddenly either him or Mitchell are going every Friday night which neutralizes their impact a bit IMO.

A power bat in the middle of this lineup would be great.

Renfroe. His presence in the lineup helps detz and rea see better pitches, and it gives us potential for more than a single

To play my own game

I'd take Graveman. There is no denying we miss Renfroe's bat and he was a hell of a defensive player for us, but I think we'd be better served to have a pair of aces on the mound each weekend.

I'm not sure that makes up for the rest of our lineup. I'd rather have another dependable arm. Plus I feel like a good pitcher is much more likely to produce in a super regional or omaha than a good hitter. It's pretty easy for a good hitter to make it through a super regional without having much impact, although a bad outing by a pitcher does the same.
