[QUOTE="GTNavyNuke, post: 514164, member: 322"] Here's the D1 Baseball summary that I posted in mid-October: "Aaron Fitt's "Fall Report" on GT is out. He has long liked GT. Conclusion: If our defense improves, we can be a top 25 team. A lot of details on how the pitching has gotten better. [LIST] [*]Connor Thomas - "analytics darling". Against USC he gave up some runs early then struck out 4 of 5. [*]Xzavion Curry - has the pitches and power but needed better control to start. Ended first with three straight SOs. [*]Tristin English - May be the nations premier 2 way player. Glad that he didn't get drafted or leave post draft!! Aaron noted it was a huge coup for us to get him back. [*]Hurter and Archer aren't pitching this fall. [*]Jake Lee - Looked good against USC and could be a mid reliever. For whatever reason, I really like Jake; may be his attitude on the hill. [*]Amos Willingham - Juco with three quality pitches. Start mid-week and then move to weekend or bullpen was Aaron's guess. [*]Luke Bartnicki - "crown jewel" of 2018 Fr recruiting class. Good against USC with 3 pitches. According to Hall, Luke has really improved his slider. (One of these days I'll figure out again how to tell what the pitch is when it's thrown.) [*]Cort Roedig - Fr good in his one USC inning. [/LIST] Offense - good again with McCann, Murray, Serratos were some mentioned. Defense - sucked (my words to paraphrase Aaron) against USC. [LIST] [*]Waddell made some nice plays at second against USC. [*]Austin Wilhite - struggled early in the summer then went to NECBL and was an all star. So we'll see. [*]Oscar Serratos - "one of Tech's most phusically gifted players". Capable of making great plays at third but not consistent. Regardless, I love him on the base pads. [*]Baron Radcliffe - may get some time at first when Tristin isn't there. Needs to hit better with his power to spare. [*]Nick Wilhite - getting better hitting in Sun Belt League over summer. Hit a single and double against USC. If he gets the bat going (with his ninja mind game ability to get walks) there is no keeping him out of the line-up (my opinion). I looked up Nick's summer stats ([URL]http://www.thebaseballcube.com/players/profile.asp?ID=206183[/URL] ). Hit 304 for Norcross Astros, which is a lot higher than his 155 last year (against better pitching). [/LIST] It's the off season and most teams are projected top 25 potential right now.
