He won several games by himself
Vandy, PSU Big ten championship come to mind.
some guys are worth playing even though they suck at defense
I apologize to others on that team because it takes a whole team to win. But Swanny and Caron literally CARRIED us to that first B1G tourney win.
I will...
Max could have sat indian style anywhere on the field and I wouldn't have complained about him being in the lineup. Your point of Offense makes up for defense is valid

I know you were probably talking about going...
There is a Left handed hitting Junior Catcher ( Miller) who will catch some, Newhan is a bat first guy who might crack some playing time. Hasnt looked good in the infield, learning the outfield. Nunez cant throw the ball 90 feet right now and shouldnt be out there in CF. Mac Moyer is a good CF...
just a Guess on Sept 29th
Horn- Friday
Katzkee-Saturday
TBD- Sunday
I hope hope hope Jasa takes a job but I dont know whats in Rob's head for him.
Closer is wide open as well.
Blachowicz has the stuff for Sunday but needs to be consistent.
Mannell could be Sunday or closer
