    LOL Howell would be better defensively w/ 1 leg than Crews. same as always on the def teams,, offense is included. Why the best def CF 5 years running finally made his first def team. Maybe leading league in dbls finally got him the nod...;)

    Foster SS better def #s than both the SS, better off. #s than one...but hes not projected 1st round I guess.. ill wager makes it to show before either 1st & 2nd team SS.

    Hogs only 2 total ?? good thing they didnt have 3 I guess...;)

    I have not gotten to see lots of games other than UF games but Robertson is an elite defensive outfielder. He is so good that he pushed Langford to left field but he will probably play center in The Show. If he wasn't he wouldn't be in our batting order.

    dude is scared of the wall, no where near as good a CF as Jud was. You use Elite a bit too loosely. Watch Bradfield from Vandy, he is Elite.

    Don't forget Kurland is the equivalent of a senior in HS!!

    Can you imagine what might be to come!

    Fun fact lol: Cade Kurland is not the youngest player on this team. He is 19. Remarkable season and certainly power numbers beyond what I would have ever imagined.

    True, early on. But he has seemed to figure that out the back half of the season.

    I have seen many balls drilled to the gap and I am thinking double and Robertson somehow makes it look like an easy play. He is FAST and gets to the ball in good position.

    Not a super arm but always throws to the correct base/cut off man. That is a really underappreciated skill by most fans.
