[QUOTE="THWG, post: 601579, member: 2679"] I believe that we'll take somewhat of a step back next year, but not a significant one. I think that we'll be on the bubble for a hosting spot and win around 35 games. The offense is going to look completely different next year even though we have 7 starters returning. Radcliffe is going to really be the only power threat, but a few freshmen (Reid, Jenkins, Compton, and Holland) have real power potential and I would like to see all of them get playing time (mainly at DH). We have so much speed returning that I want to see us play like Louisville. It would be nice to see extremely aggressive baserunning. Our defense should also be near the top of the ACC if not the best. Pitching is just a huge unknown right now. Roedig will be the ace, but after him there are a lot of questions. Will Hughes start? My guess is probably since he is starting in the Cape. Will Bartnicki start or be the main guy out of the pen? I think he should come out of the pen where his stuff can really play up and it seems like he is comfortable in that role. How will Archer pitch when he gets back? How will Brace, Chapman, and Barlow respond to a bigger role this year? I really love the potential of these three and I believe all of them will be very reliable pitchers whether it will be out of the pen or rotation is obviously to be seen. We also have a load of talented pitchers coming in, and it will be interesting to see who steps up. I really like Westbrooks, Finley, and Arnold, but you can never tell how freshmen will react to the change from high school to college. Edit: I forgot about Maxwell coming in as well. I'm not expecting a ton out of him his freshman year since he has some documented control issues, but he is too talented to not have some kind of impact next year. I expect him to eventually develop into an ace though. [/QUOTE]
