Message: [QUOTE="hardcorehusky, post: 2130128, member: 593"] Good recap- a couple of things I look at differently. The starters are good but none are going to go particularly deep. 5 to 6 innings from your 1 and 2 guys is not good enough and will put more pressure on the bullpen........ Radue has been improving and is an important piece in the bullpen. The rest of the guys in the pen sans Nepiarsky and Russell need to step up with throwing strikes. If Polonia can come back and harness his stuff, now you have 4 good relievers. If the starters could go a little longer, the bullpen would not be as exposed with the Dandeneau, Poulin , Domnarski group. Hitting has been better than expected. I think the freshmen will improve and I am still waiting for Toppa and Gnesda to rake. Prato, Susi and Feldstein have been revelations. Defensively, the team has been solid. Aaron Hill being injured doesn't help but once he is back, I think this will help us. I am a huge Jim Penders fan. He tells it as he sees it. The league is very good, so 3rd would be great and I would take 4th, that would get us into the NCAA Tournament. If we wind up 5th, it will be difficult to make the Tourny, but who knows. [/QUOTE]
