Message: [QUOTE="dbmill, post: 3179385, member: 2504"] Yes, it looks like there is some solid talent coming into the program over the next couple of years. However, I also think there is some good talent already on the baseball roster, it just needs to develop as players play in summer ball and as freshmen mature into sophomores, and on and on. Remember, Jacob Wallace was a fairly ineffective pitcher his freshman year, barely able to stay on the mound due to his lack of control and composure, even though the coaching staff had him labeled as one of the three most likely closer candidates in the preseason that year (John Russell won the closer role). But Wallace made huge improvements over the next couple of years, eventually turning into the monster he was out of the bullpen this season. [/QUOTE]
