What do you expect to see happen in the next month or so and what is a reasonable expectation for next season?
Obviously priority 1 is shopping hard for arms in the portal. We MUST find 1 or 2 weekend starters and 2 or 3 bullpen arms. We also will need to get at least 3 position players as well. We prolly need a catcher, a middle infielder, and at least 1 outfielder.
Those who are coming back have GOT to take a step forward. We cannot walk batters at the clip we did this past season. At the plate Clark needs to raise his average 50 points and Hines reduce his Ks. Young guys like Alford and Downs have to step up. We MUST find a team leader somewhere too. Our coaching staff also has got to step it up in the fall and offseason getting players mentally as well as physically ready to play.
As far as expectations. I keep holding out the hope that if you can lose it all so quickly you can surely regain it just as quickly but my reasonable expectations are that we make a regional as a 2 seed. A very optimistic outcome would be hosting as a 13-16 seed but see that as a longshot.
Other thoughts?
