We probably won't have that until after the Fall games or right before. There will probably be some cuts.

The offensive firepower displayed during those three White/Gold World Series games was impressive! Velo and control for the pitchers was really good as well. The new arms looked good and so did the returners. I’m sure the pitchers are looking forward to a couple of games where they do not need to face our hitters. The returners all looked really good, and the freshman class definitely has some ballers. This group will continue to push each other and develop. The future is bright on the flats.

I was looking at the Tech website, and it has 5 transfers for this year listed. Three of them have already been discussed on here (Nathan Smith, Drew Byers, and Terry Busse), but the other two I haven't seen mentioned.
One is Angelo DiSpigna who played at Mercer for 4 years. This dude has a ton of pop and gets on base a lot, but also strikesout a lot too. He does seem like a really good pickup and is a big lefty bat which is something we were missing this year.
The other transfer is a relief pitcher from Pacific University, Jackson Vaughan. He looks like an awesome pickup. His stats from last year are very good.
Also, the transfer from Wofford, John Dempsey, was not listed. I think I saw that he a was going back to Wofford for his last season. I was really excited about getting him but oh well.

This is consistent with the changes Beesball (https://beesball.com/recruiting.html ) is showing at the bottom of the insert below. Big problem remains in how to get to 35 on roster by February (like most top 50 program teams have the same problem).
For the transfers here are their stats: (I'll update the roster with this info and post at some point.)

This Sunday’s game against Kennesaw has been moved to this Friday night at 6pm due to weather. Confirmed on Kennesaw State’s Twitter Account.

Anyone have any news or notes from the KSU game?

Game one: GT 15 KSU 2
Game two: GT 3 KSU 1
We pitched very well. KSU rolled out arm after arm and our offense didn’t disappoint. The entire starting lineup (position players) in game one was returning players. Romano played second base and DISpina played left field. Jadyn had three hits and Finley homered as DH. Seemed like everyone of the starters contributed on both sides of the ball. Hopefully the team will publish the box scores and a summary article.

We'll be ranked in mid 40's and middle of Coastal probably. Due to last year pitching and defense. We'll see. But of Football, MBB and baseball, baseball will continue to be the highest ranked. Volleyball and golf will do better than baseball (how's that for going out on a limb?)
Didn't see this linked and found it looking for KSU details. There are two links in this to the box scores. Both 7 innings.
https://ramblinwreck.com/jackets-prevail-against-jsu-in-first-exhibition/
Tied first 5-5 - with 4 unearned runs given up. Two errors - Jadyn (ss) and Rubenstein (c). So it wasn't Fr.
Won second 5-2. - no unearned runs but one error on Diamant (ss).
If our D doesn't get better, any pitching improvement will be limited. (Yeah, I say this too much over the last few years. And it's almost time to pull the pitcher.)
Pitching first game. Lots of SO by Finley, McGuire and Schmolke. Smith had 0 ER but gave up 2 BB and a hit in an IP (3.0 WHIP)
Pitching second game. Busse! Others only an IP, Hill gave up 2 ER but no hits and no BB. So unless WPs, box score looks wrong.
I expect that D1 Aaron Fitt will have something on the KSU game since he tweeted about it I think.

I'm hoping we get a D1 Baseball fall report, with Fitt having been at the game.
