Yes, Purnell looks a bit stronger and is up a notch or two on FB and his movement and location looked very good.
Thanks 87, I think, I'm note sure if today was the last scrimmage before Opening Day- and I sure hope not. The "comedy of errors" you describe...
On a cold windy afternoon, I caught 6 innings of what looked to be a 9 innings scrimmage. It was well played despitr the very windy conditions...
Not sure where one would slot Fabian. I've seen him make some nice plays at SS this spring but also two errors to extend innings. Still have...
87, 1. Yes, Kurland at second with Rivera all 4 innings. 2. Yep, Robertson CF for blue and hit a sharp liner for single and stole second easily...
Scrimmage notes: 4 innings of 4. Finnvold for Blue; Alvarez C Ursitti for Orange; Heyman C NOTE: Lastres was scratched from Orange- he was on...
I have a meeting on campus this afternoon - I may be able to drop by the Park for a few innings afterward-- maybe.

Sorry to hear that PC is likely not ready to pitch in competition for at least another 5 weeks. That means he will have not have thrown in...

Scrimmage observations: I watched 5 innings of 6 inn. scrimmage. It was a bit sloppy. Ficc/Lastres for Blue (Lastres caught the whole way)...
I'm sure Sully will experiment with a few combinations in the "pre-SEC season" but I would like to see a well-defined depth chart at every...
87, I agree -- of greatest concern/challenge for this team to be exceptional against other elite teams is relief pitching and especially a...
. Thanks for the info on Sproat having pitched which makes sense after two innings on Friday. Usually, Sully tries to keep the top two guys on...
87, Thanks for your observations. Good to see Langford get it going- he was just missing pitches in the two scrimmages I attended- not making...
87, Glad you can make the scrimmage tomorrow- I cannot but should be able to on weekend. Not sure what the pitching rotation is as we have no...
74, Thanks for these astute observations base on your experiences- always good to have your insights.. Sully will likely bring him along slowly...
Cags was hitting 97mph on Saturday and FB consistently in 94-96 range. If he has more pop to go- he will be outstanding. Plus, I like his pitching...
